Work is life rest all are mere details

Lesson No. 1: A leader is not made in heaven
Lesson No. 2: How to handle power
Lesson No. 3: Grace under fire
Lesson No. 4: Sharing the limelight
Lesson No. 5: You needn't be flashy to succeed
Lesson No. 6: Work is life and the rest is mere details

These are the management lessons not from any management guru or any corporate honcho but from the new Captain Cool of the Men in Blue (Indian Cricket Team), Rahul Dravid. He is a perfect example of a silent assassin, never ever have I seen him being physically aggressive on the field but he has the guts and the nerves of steel to demoralise the best in world by his steely resolve. He has always been the silent performer even though his performance is overshadowed by somebody else but he is there doing his duty with full dedication and devotion. He is the dependable crisis man and at this juncture the whole team India is rallying behind this man who recently assumed the role of the captain. He has evolved over time as a player and as a person. One can make out the dedication and the devotion of the game by the punchline on his T-Shirt,"Cricket is life rest all are mere details". Are the guys in the corporate world listening?
