RAJOURI, Apr 2: School of Management Studies, Baba Ghulam Shah Badshah University, organized a webinar wherein Prof Neharika Vohra, Vice Chancellor, Delhi Skill and Entrepreneurship University delivered lecture on ‘Leading Vs Managing’
In her lecture, Prof Neharika Vohra said the leadership challenges are complex and there is no one right answer. She said that the leader does not impose a solution and the final solution emerges from the dialogue of all the parties. She said that everyone must adapt their perspective in order for a solution to emerge.
She further said that a leader is one who articulates the problem and makes others to realize that together they can make the change happening. She said that a leader is one who can offer hope, build community and see new possibilities. She said that leading is all about exercising leadership for the right problem at the right time.
“A leader needs to have the capacity to hold the pressure and come up with the solution. Leading is actually about sensing the emotions of the group around you. The quality of a leader is to hear what has been unheard and represent than on the table,” she said and added that managing is not any less than leading and leading is not any better than managing. These are two different kinds of acts that we do at two different points of time for finding solutions to two different problems, she further said.
Prof Akbar Masood, Vice Chancellor BGSBU, in his message, said that leadership is the creation of positive change for the empowerment of people. He said that leadership helps us navigate crises and rebuild communities in moments of crisis.
Prof Iqbal Parwez, Dean School of Management Studies, said that leadership is centered on a vision to guide change.
