Management Techniques and Anekāntavāda Approach

anekantic approach. Because the organisation or bringing together of departments into a coherent whole is possible when there is diversity. Unity implies diversity and vice-versa.
The third function of management is leadership. It is quite obvious that a dynamic personality with multidimensional approach is a fundamental leadership quality for a manager to be able to lead his subordinates. He has to have a multidimensional perspective and a vision of getting the work done by people having varied personalities, aptitudes, modes and propensities.
A good manager has not only a broad based understanding of human psychology but he also possesses a versatile personality with a whole range of qualities to be able to motivate, regulate, control, assign, evaluate and judge the comparative merits and demerits of delighting power to subordinates with varied backgrounds, talents, skills etc.
With regard to application of Anekantic approach to various fields, I would like to focus on the practical aspect. But how am I to do this? Real application would invoke actual participation in real life situations with Anekantic approach. This has to be done into course of living and working. An alternative to this could be a stimulation of life situations and application of Anekanticattitude for solving issues there in.
Where as the first alternative is by and large not under the preview of an essay, the second would require the essay to be supplemented by practical. This is highly desirable and yet it would consume more tie, then I might be allowed. Hence what I intend to do here is only a little demonstration of how Anekānta works towards fulfilment and success and then mentioning a few areas in which Anekantic approach runs as a core in the decisions, moves and practices of successful managers.
