A ‘Priest’ine Leadership A Case study of cultivation of Leadership qualities through Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR)

Abstract

Leadership required in discharging the responsibility of Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) is different from other types of leaderships. This is because CSR undertaking is not just a onetime effort. It has to be sustained for a prolonged period of time. The leadership involved should not wane out with the passage of time. At the same time it should create more number of leaders with hands down training so that new generation’s leadership qualities may get enhanced. Unless a top leader drives people under him and offers a fair chance to other team members i.e volunteers, it will be futile to expect a proper grooming of future CSR Leaders. The present research paper seeks to focus on a case study of a priest (Guruji) who single handedly groomed many persons deftly and cultivated their innate characteristics required for discharging CSR activities. The required factors are elucidated briefly and are summarized at the end
