INTRODUCTION The tenableness for selecting the Dalai Lama is because he has wind many things in his life and is now considered amongst many researchers and writers, as one of the greatest bequeathership of inherently time. He has been a attracter of a country, a religion, and more than signifi piece of asstly, the leader of the phantasmal knowledge domain. He is a fascinating quality that has experient many difficult situations which increases the intrigue of this leader and the skills that he possess.He leads and promotes a way of life that encapsulates e precise kind-hearteds, in entirely countries, of all religions, and uses genuinely anomalous lead skills, which countenance behind be very(prenominal) kindle to study. 1. 2BACKGROUND The Dalai Lama is a re-incarnation of a big line (13 before him) of tulkus(an beginner Tibetan Buddhistic lama/t separatelyer) who settle from thebodhisattvaAvalokitesvara. The first Dalai Lama was Gendun Drup who lived in 1391 1474. Tenzin Gyatso was enthroned as the 14th Dalai Lama in 1940 when he was five years old, and assumed impermanent responsibility of Tibet (www. alailamafoundation. org) when he was 15 years old. He experienced an invasion of Tibet by the Chinese and escaped into transport in India when he was 24, making him the first of all time Dalai Lama ever to leave Tibet. The Dalai Lama has dedicated his life to promoting a innovation free of violence and suffering, where all reputation can live in pink of my John and harmony together, irrespective of nationality and religious beliefs. He relys that by means of conjecture, compassion and the respect for all life, each person will get to happiness and contentment in their life. 1. 3ACHIEVEMENTSThe Dalai Lama has come acrossd many things in his life to da te, including cosmos awarded with one of the most recognised awards in the reality in 1989 The Nobel Peace Prize, which is a true indication of his world-recognised contri saveions to promote peace. To achieve this award the Dalai Lama has spent his entire life striving to create a more peaceful environment for the tender-hearted race, with a great focus on reclaiming human rights in Tibet. This mission has seen him journey all oer the world, tincting with leaders of many countries presenting new initiatives and being stern in his message and strength to get back these issues.These include his appeals to the United Nations during his exile, in 1959, 1961 and 1965, which resulted in one-third resolutions being adopted by the General Assembly. In 1987 he presented the flipper Point Peace Plan to the congressional Humans Rights Caucus. This was an appeal to the US relation for the restoration of human rights in Tibet and to say it as a zone of peace, thusly stopping the dumpi ng of nuclear profusion in Tibet, as well as urging earnest negotiations on the upcoming of Tibet and relations between the Tibetan and Chinese people (http//nobelprize. org).In 1989 he offered the substance Way Proposal at the European Parliament, which was not accepted, however, the Dalai Lama again proposed this in 1996 and 1997, when a preliminary opinion analyse was held and the policy was adopted by Parliament. In April 1991, Tenzin Gyatsu travelled to the US and met with George Bush, which ended a boycott with the nation, and as well as resulted in US Congress passing the Tibetan polity Act 2002, formalising US fill-in for parley between China and the Dalai Lama, and besides providing funding to Tibet for development projects within the country. This was a very strategical decision ade by the Dalai to create a valuable race with one of the most authorful counties in the world, and in addition resulted in the US apportion the Dalai Lama with the highest civilian award, the Congressional halcyon Medal, in 2007. Whilst negotiating with parliaments and congress worldwide, the Dalai Lama has rebuilt communities for those spirit in exile, set up educational, ethnical and religious institutions all everywhere the world to assist in maintaining the Tibetan glossiness and apprise Buddhism. He still continues to lead a population of an estimated 500 billion Buddhists worldwide (http//www. thedhamma. com). 1. 4LEADERSHIP CHARACTERISTICSIt is very clear that the Dalai Lamas objectives be to restore equality, respect, organized religion and mutual benefit (www. nobelprize. org) between Tibet and China. His concerns ar for all members of the human family (www. nobelprize. org), and he has stay puted lucid and relentless in his message which has resulted in loyalty and dedication from his pursuit. Personal value are very important to this leader, and he sets a lesson example to his following, stock-still also during the most difficult sit uations he still appears to act rationally. For example, it is inform that 20% of the Tibetan population deem died in combat with the Chinese (www. dityabirla. com), yet he systematically acts with integrity, compassion and empathy, whilst remaining strategic and controlled in his negotiations with this nation. The Dalai Lamas value and morals are what lead him this encourages his followers to also align their values with his. He sticks to his principles of right conduct, and thusly sets a moral example to his followers, which results in their unwavering assert for him and his cause. These values and morals have prevented the Dalai Lama from behaving violently when in a menacing situation as they are authority of his psychological makeup, and moral reasoning.Theory Y is applicable in this scenario as the Dalai Lama leads on the premise that people are intrinsically motivated, meaning that how they feel will impact and influence them more than outside motivation. Because of hi s spiritual strengths the Dalai Lama has developed the highest phase of moral reasoning, which as Kohlberg has expressed is not always possible. Whilst Gyatsus morals remain the most important driver in his leadership, his culture is also something he is very proud of and is something that he is consistently working(a) to retain.This is evident with his part in the leading the development of towns of Tibetans in exile across the world that celebrate and sleep together the Tibetan culture, in particular, Buddhism, which has also all the way driven his behaviours and attitudes towards life. There are legion(predicate) conclaves following the Dalai Lamas Buddhist breedings, with followers travelling all over the world to get the opportunity to meet or listen to his teachings live. This group cohesiveness ensures reciprocal influence and maximises the influence of his messages, which is other reason why the Dalai Lama spends so much of his time travelling.He on a regular basis visits these groups to minimise interpersonal conflicts between the groups. It also allows for new groups to form at each event, which results in the group development work repeating itself by dint ofout the world. The Dalai Lamas leadership is both authentic and servant leadership. He promotes self-awareness, openness and inclusivity within the human family, yet he also acts as a servant for the people of Tibet to clamber for their right to live in peace. I would say that the Dalai Lama is a transformational leader who provides heap for his followers and inspires them to embrace his vision of peace and happiness for all.He allows them to trance of what they can achieve, then designs a way for them to achieve it, and then continues to develop it through initiatives and programs that allow the vision to materialise, as we have seen in section 1. 3 Achievements. 1. 5TYPE OF personnel Due to his come out within the Buddhism companionship the Dalai Lama possesses referent powe r over his followers, this has developed over a long period of time, which has allowed his followers to witness his leadership skills and what he is prepared to experience/ grant for his beliefs.This has resulted in his following growing consistently over the past 70 years, as people give, respect and love him, and then increasing his influence and support. As it is believed that the Dalai Lama is a reincarnation of the 13th Dalai Lama he also possesses a aim of legitimate power that has been passed down to him when he was enthroned as the 14th Dalai Lama. This legitimate power would only be relevant to those that believe in Buddhism, therefore believe in the concept of reincarnation.This legitimate power is not a power that the Dalai Lama exercises, as he claims that he is a unsophisticated monk from Tibet, I am no one special (Nobel Prize espousal speech). This claim also contributes to the respect that his followers have for him and also helps them relate to him through his personalised leadership, resulting in stronger bonds being formed. The Dalai Lama is also a community leader, as he does not have position power from any country, and also has minimum resources to glide by his message through.He also possesses the skills to build social capital, as discussed above and mobilisation, through the travel he does all over the world to communicate with his followers. 1. 6PERSONAL TRAITS The Dalai Lama uses his personal traits to communicate with people more effectively, which in turn ensures he gains their trustingness and respect. He is often smiling at people, listens intently, and always maintains eye contact with the audition or speaker. He appears to be promiscuous discussing all topics and never interrupts the speaker during conversation, but listens, encourages them to continue and then responds calmly.The Dalai Lama speaks three wordss, Tibetan, Chinese and side of meat. This ensures he can communicate and connect strongly with his fellow c ountrymen in Tibet. It is also important that he can communicate effectively with those that he has conflicts with, the Chinese. English is also a language he has learnt, as this is the most common language spoken in the Western world and therefore means maximum picture show of his message to those across the world.When people intercourse most their encounter with the Dalai Lama, many call forth his insatiable laugh and kind smile that result in them warming to him (www. youtube. com) and today wanting to listen and absorb his message. It has been reported by some, that he possesses an aura that has an surprisingly positive effect on a person and is communicated to the receiver purely through facial expressions, including eye contact. As these purviews of the converse process makes up 50% of the message, it therefore ensures clarity and understanding for the receiver of the message. . 7LESSONS TO BE LEARNT The Dalai Lama has a lot to teach those that analyse his leadership sk ills, but I would say that the most profound teaching is that you essential connect with your followers, by gaining their trust and commitment. This can only be achieved by being consistent in your message, whilst playacting with integrity, and providing your group or team with a vision, and assisting with achieving the final goal through support and development of the vision.It is also important to leave regrets behind and take out front the lessons which have been learnt by past mistakes, which ensures group cohesion, therefore maximising the chances of achieving that goal or objective. To be a made leder you must be passionate about achieving your objective, as this will be communicated to your followers, therefore promote loyalty and passion iin them, whilst inspiring them to achieve their goal. Mentoring is also another important aspect of leadership, as it ssists in the changing of behaviours and also encourages aspirations in the less experienced, whilst passing on valua ble skills and lessons learnt from a more experienced leader. This has been apparent by the lessons and support that the Dalai Lama has received from many leaders somewhat the world, including religious political and organisational, and also by the time he spent as a child learning about Buddhism and Tibetan culture. 1. 8CONCLUSIONIn conclusion, it has been very interesting and inspiring to read about this leader, i have learnt about many skills that are required to be a successful and inspirational leader. However, this spiritual leader whitethorn have many more skills that I believe cannot be duplicated without many hours of meditation and the study of his culture. Yet, this in itself highlights how effective the Dalai Lama is in communicating his message in relation to Buddhism, and how inspirational he sincerely is.
