friendship and enmity.

P.T.O

y Whatever he is, he doesn t deny anything, he is

transparent.

WHAT IS EXPECTED FROM A MANAGER WHAT IS THE STRATEGIC ? HOW IT APPLIES TO KRISHNA ?
 Creative destruction.  Burning of khandava forest.  Setting goals.

Mahabharat was the biggest battle fought in ancient India between Pandavas and Kauravas, and had each and every other king/ruler fighting from either of the sides. Duryodhana representing Kauravas and Arjuna representing Pandavas, reached at nearly the same time to Krishna for calling him to fight from their side. Krishna asked them to choose between him and his complete army. Since he alone was capable of destroying the world, leave alone the opponent, he would not raise arms and play a non-combatant role. Arjuna choose to have him and Duryodhana was happy to have gained his mighty army.

STICK ON A GOAL
Krishna had three 3 clear cut goals that he followed

and achieved 100% targets.

Paritrayana sadhunaam ---- welfare for saints Vinashaya Dushkritaam----- Destroy evil Dharmasansthapanaay sambhavani yuge yuge

----To establish and strengthen religion in every era

MOTIVATIONAL SKILLS
 When Arjun reached the battle field he loose his

determination to fight

 He saw that among the opponents were many of his

relatives young and old and that he was going to kill them for the sake of Kingdom.

 He resisted from fighting and dropped arms.  Lord Krishna motivated him by his speech which was

later named BHAGWAT GITA that s still read and followed. Arjun recovered and decided to fight.

EFFECTIVE STRATEGIES
Manager should have skills to build strategies to

achieve target Pandavas and Kauravas had soldiers and warriors strength in the ratio of 7:11, Pandavas and Kauravas having 1.53 millions and 2.41 millions. With this count it was clear that the battle could be won only with Effective Strategies. The fact that Pandavas won the battle proves that Krishna was successful not only in building strategies but in implementing them to achieve success.

LEADERSHIP QUALITY
y When Krishna asked Arjuna and Duryodhana to

choose between him and his army, the choice was, in fact, between a Leader and his Resources.
y While a Good Leader can gain from limited resources,

a Bad Leader will loose even with vast resources. Knowing his excellent Leadership Qualities,
y Arjuna requested Krishna not only to lead the entire

mission but to personally lead him by accepting to be his Saarthi (Charioteer), guide him and lead him to success.

DIRECTION AND CONTROLLING

Controlling an army of 1.53 million soldiers and warriors to fight against a bigger army was not a easy task.

The 1.53 million soldiers were divided in seven divisions, led by a Commander each, further controlled by a Supreme Commander who himself was guided by the Pandavas and Krishna.

Conclusion
y Agreed that Lord Krishna was God and almighty and

that he could have done the task himself without involving a single person.

y But the Battle of Mahabharat had him in a non-

combatant role and that the Pandavas won the battle is due to his extra-ordinary Managerial Qualities achieving 100% target.

y And thus, we can call him the GREATEST MANGER in

the World.
