Another interesting challenge today is for all human beings
to develop the feminine principle. New leadership models require the
development of the right brain, which is intuitive, holistic and creative. Most
of these traits, along with nurturing and interpersonal skills, were previously
relegated to a lower status in a predominantly macho world. The change in
leadership styles required today, have made these very traits important. The
Indian model of ardhanareeshwarar—a god who integrates the male and female
elements in himself—is an ancient Vedic concept. Follow the logic through. The
popular advertisement for Raymonds (the textile giant) shows the complete man
as a man who can deal with a baby as comfortably as he can with a balance
sheet. It shows someone who can laugh, and is not afraid to shed a tear.
Accessing their feminine side is a
challenge men today face to deal with the transition to a more humane model of
leadership.
