...Mahatma Gandhi De acuerdo a las definiciones del psicólogo Bernard Bass sobre los estilos de liderazgo (líder transaccional y transformacional). * El líder transformacional es aquel que motiva a sus seguidores a rendir al máximo nivel, fomentando un clima de confianza y responsabilidad hacia la organización y sus metas. Concluimos que Gandhi es un gran ejemplo del líder transformacional, pues tenía muy bien definidos sus objetivos y se involucró tanto en ellos que logro motivar a sus seguidores hacia los niveles más altos respecto a los valores éticos El líder transformacional motiva e inspira a las personas a su cargo, estimula intelectualmente, motiva a cuestionarse métodos tradicionales de hacer las cosas, promueve una visión de las tareas asignadas como formas de aprender y se centra más en la justicia distributiva. Además, la empatía y conocimiento de uno mismo (componentes clave de la inteligencia emocional), caracterizan a este tipo de liderazgo que enseguida contagia a los demás emocionalmente con el entusiasmo y la energía con la que impregna sus metas y objetivos. Gandhi se convierte en un magnifico modelo de liderazgo del que todos podemos aprender e integrar, un personaje que cambió el mundo gracias a sus múltiples fortalezas psicológicas, una gran fortaleza de carácter y una extraordinaria sabiduría. Benito Mussolini Benito Mussolini fue un líder en Italia durante la época de la Italia fascista durante la segunda guerra mundial. El contexto...

...Management & Behavior in Global Organizations Research Project Proposal – Leader Indira Gandhi September 19, 2013 Indira Gandhi was born on November 19, 1917 in the northern Indian city of Allahabad. Her parents were Jawaharlal Nehru (first Prime Minister of India) and Kamla Nehru. She learned politics at an early age by being her father’s assistant. Later, she made history by becoming the first woman Prime Minister of India. Today, she is well known around the globe for her accomplishments as the head leader of a third world democratic country. A pivotal event for Indira Gandhi as a leader was when she declared a state of emergency for India. State of emergency is a period when government may alter constitutional human rights if he or she perceives grave threats to nations internal and external sources or financial situations of crisis. A controversy indeed, that led to her resignation. However, three years later she regained her position as Prime Minister. Indira Gandhi’s leadership style was greatly influenced by her culture, which was struggling with overpopulation, low food production, financial difficulties and poor foreign relations. Her leadership style will be analyzed through different theories. Hofstede’s five cultural dimensions: power distance, uncertainty avoidance, individualism, masculinity, and long-term vs. short-term orientation will illustrate her leadership as Prime Minister. Max Weber’s traditional, rational legal and charismatic...

...Indira Gandhi Indira Priyadarshini Gandhi born 19 November 1917 and she died on 31 October 1984) she was the fourth Prime Minister of India and a central figure of the Indian National Congress party. Gandhi, who served from 1966 to 1977 and then again from 1980 until her assassination in 1984, is the second-longest-serving Prime Minister of India and the only woman to hold the office. Indira Gandhi was the only child of Indian Prime Minister Jawaharlal Nehru. She served as the Chief of Staff of her father's highly centralised administration between 1947 and 1964 and came to wield considerable unofficial influence in government. Elected Congress President in 1959, she was offered the premiership in succession to her father. Gandhi refused and instead chose to become a cabinet minister in the government. She finally consented to become Prime Minister in succession to Lal Bahadur Shastri in 1966. As Prime Minister, Gandhi became known for her political ruthlessness and unprecedented centralisation of power. She went to war with Pakistan in support of the independence movement and war of independence in East Pakistan, which resulted in an Indian victory and the creation of Bangladesh, as well as increasing India's influence to the point where it became the regional hegemon of South Asia. Gandhi also presided over a state of emergency from 1975 to 1977 during which she ruled by decree and made lasting changes to the constitution of India. She was assassinated in the aftermath of...

...Rajiv Gandhi, the eldest son of Feroze and Indira Gandhi, was born on August 20, 1944 and the youngest person to become the Prime Minister of India at the age of 40. He was India’s 9th Prime Minister and 3rd among the Gandhi family. He held his position after her mother’s death on October 31, 1984 until he resigned on December 2, 1989 after an election defeat. Though having no relationship to Mahatma Gandhi, his leadership brought substantial influence in India’s external political relationship. And even though his character was questioned in a controversial scandal which was actually served as his political downfall, he remained one of the respected Prime Minister of India. Rajiv Gandhi belonged to one of the famous political family in India. His grandfather, Jawaharlal Nehru, was an Indian leader of independence and subsequently became the first Indian Prime Minister. Rajiv, together with his younger brother Sanjay, was raised in Delhi and Allahabad.

...Politics is the science of running governmental affairs based on a ruling principle that shapes the identity of a nation. Politics in essence involves the art of forming, directing and administrating political units by a chosen set of ardent leaders who represent the interests of the majority of the people of the nation. The origin of politics dates back to early 2100 B.C with the monarchical rule practiced in the lands of Sumeria shaping the concept of legislation. But since the conception of the ideology of governance, the fairer sex has not had an equitable representation at the helm of decision making. In spite of being the largest democracy in the world, women’s representation is only 9.1 percent in the Indian parliament. In this male-dominated power game of politics, there are women leaders who have revolutionized the space of policymaking with their adroit and finesse. Listed below are the stories of five powerful female Indian politicians of all time who showed the world that women can be brilliant administrators. • Vijay Lakshmi Pandit, an Indian diplomat and politician, heralded as one of the world’s leading women in public life in the 20th century, was the daughter of noted aristocratic nationalist leader Motilal Nehru. She was an active worker in the Indian nationalist movement and was imprisoned by the British three times on accounts of her struggle to free India. In 1937, she was elected to the provincial legislature of the United Provinces and was designated...

...A problem of perspective Over the past two centuries the developed world has evolved a single dimensional worldview. Advances in technology and living standards have glossed over and in many places erased, the regional and class differences that characterised the world for previous generations. This is particularly obvious in countries like Australia where the national ethos has an ingrained commitment to egalitarianism. A view compounded by the dominant Christian belief system with its underlying conviction of personal and social equality. Westerners react to India as a paradox, an enigma, an absurdity. India is a complex, multidimensional and truly multicultural society which outside observers with their one dimensional worldview become completely confused. A population of almost one billion and a history of over 4000 years has developed with a belief system that institutionalises social difference and inequality yet underpins the world's largest and most vibrant democracy. The western visitor sees the complexity and confusion, the high rise apartment blocks being built next to the slum but fails to comprehend the rich and important connections between these seemingly irreconcilable establishments. To appreciate India a good starting point is any intersection on any day in the city of Jaipur1. The traffic will come to a halt at a red light and wait. Vying for position are hand carts, cycle rickshaws, auto rickshaws, bullock carts, camel carts and a plethora of buses...

...Kuwaiti Kickbacks, India ink, Syrian Scandal, and Mounties and Bank. For sure, all of decisions were made for the company’s profit but, at the same time, the company also suffered too because of the problems inside their decision. All the competitors were benefitted somehow while Airbus was suffering. Firstly, in Kuwaiti Kickbacks, El Fekih (ALAFCO) and Al Mishari (KAC) benefitted through this case, for sure Airbus was benefitted too but only for the first few deals at the beginning. However, Bader Mallah, the chief financial officer, sent people to monitor and provided Ministry of Finance ALAFCO’s orders for the cargo planes. This made them lose whole deal. With the deal from India Ink., Rajiv Gandhi and his Indian Airlines associates and again, Airbus Ind. were benefitted. Rajiv Gandhi got Bribes from Airbus for the deal in 1985. However, Airbus had a crisis when they lost a deal with 43 planes which worth $2 billion. In the Syrian Scandal, Airbus was the only benefitted one who earned $240 million through that and denied the deal between the company and Syrian officials. Syrian Air had big financial lost and people, who were in charge of the case, were fined $268 million and sent to prison for 10 years. Mounties and Banks case had IAL and the Canadian PM Brian Mulroney benefitted. Air Canada suffered. Since the case was pretty complicated because it was related to the prime minister of Canada, the investigation took a long time. Therefore, they need a long time to find a...

...Politics of Coalition in India Politics of coalition has become the ultimate truth of Indian politics these days. No doubt, a coalition gives the chance and pleasure of running a government, but in the course of time, temporal friendships, deceit and blackmailing turn out to be the cause of brutal termination of a coalition government. In most of the cases, a coalition is a principle less, irresponsible and unaccountable alliance of some power-seeking individuals. We have the very current example of Karnataka where the BJP got deceived in a game of ridiculous political farce. The Indian society is divided into different religions, castes, sects and regional mindsets. Principle-based politics has become a deed on papers only and what are more visible nowadays are parties of castes and castes of parties. There are regional parties having special zones for them. We find regional barons and country heads of various castes. These small and regional groups never hesitate to unabashedly indulge in the act of blackmailing for their own purpose. There is no discussion on the burring and relevant topics of national interest. Agriculture, employment, economic policies, education, public welfare, etc. are out of their agenda. These coalitions have become a severe headache for our nation. The pertinent question arise here :what these characterless coalitions have to offer to our nation? The answer is not hidden from the known fact that these coalitions could not become a medium of...
