  • Why Self Leadership is necessary in today’s world?

    13 Mar 2022

    When I began my journey in SOIL last year, the very first class that we started with was the Self- Leadership course, taught by none other than our very own beloved Founder and Chairman, Sh. Anil Sachdev. He started the session with true authenticity by narrating his life journey. By the end of our first class, we all had to pen down our life story. It was the first time that I wrote about my entire life. I would say it was a truly different experience because in school and graduation days, we never wrote or read about us. We were either learning about others’ success stories or we were solving someone else’s business problem. But, never did we ever think about our own story and its upward or downward curves. Thankfully, SOIL’s curriculum gave us the opportunity to focus on experiential learning through the Self-Leadership course.

    Why Self Leadership is necessary in today’s world?

    Every week we had to do some pre-reads which in itself was enriching in terms of learning and development. Our learning majorly revolved around the 5 levels of well-being:

    1. Physical Wellbeing
    2. Communication Wellbeing
    3. Emotional Wellbeing
    4. Intellectual Wellbeing
    5. Spiritual Wellbeing

    To be a good leader, one has to understand the importance of all the above-mentioned parameters of well-being. One may be very intellectual but if one has no empathy to understand the emotions of other people, then one cannot be a great leader. This was one of the most important lessons that I took away from the Self- Leadership class.

    We underwent a transformation journey where we were asked to draw out life maps with clearly designed goals. This enables every student to explore how they could lead their physical, emotional and intellectual selves to give their best. During the coursework, we also identified our ‘purpose and calling’, discover our innate gifts and strengths and become more aware of ourselves.

    Apart from studies, every week, we all were sent to different break-out rooms with different set of classmates, for a group task. The tasks were designed in a manner that we discover ourselves by listening to others and speaking to them. There was a sort of trust in each one of us to open up and share our experiences which made us learn from each other and this is what we call ‘peer learning’.

    Self-Leadership is not only about how you lead your life so as to become successful. It reflects upon how you work with others to create an impact in all our lives.

    My personal learning and growth from this course have been tremendous, I learnt the art of quick pre-reads to prepare for the class which will surely help me in future when I have to understand my client requirements. Also, it helped me learn how to articulate my thoughts and decisions without negatively affecting others. Additionally, I learnt a lot about myself, my strengths, my weaknesses which I have to work on, how to work towards my dreams and life goals, which steps to take next, and so much more. I feel that this class really gave a boost to my confidence and self-awareness which I would need as I become a next gen leader.

    One special characteristic about Anil Sir is that he has such powerful listening skills. If a person speaks for 2 hours, he has the perfect skills to summarize this 2-hour story into a 2-minutes story, without missing out a single important point. This is definitely a tough job for me, but I am sure someday in future I will also learn to grasp this art of listening.
