Leadership in Crises

In Kargil war, Temperature -48, Altitude 2700 meter, where even breathing is difficult. Only basic food that is required for survival was available and on some nights even that was a luxury. Where basic daily routine work like bath and toilet is a difficult task. Where they have to sleep while sitting or hiding under some rock. In these circumstances young army officers motivated their troops to carry their weapon and fight with deadly and invisible enemy. How do these leaders inspire and lead their teams to win against all odds in the most adverse situations and come out victorious?

Dare to Dream

Some targets look beyond human capacity. In Kargil war, the enemy was on the top of the mountain peaks and Indian soldiers were not allowed to cross the LOC. These soldiers had to climb from the front to attack the enemy and there were no shelters, no place to hide. Enemy was able to see our soldiers from top and shoot. To hit our men was an easy task for enemy. They only have to drop stones from above and not even waste their bullet to kill our men. “It is impossible to win in such a situation” commented many army authorities from other countries, but our men were able to win Kargil War. How some of the leaders were able to achieve nearly impossible victory, in extremely difficult situation?

Together We Can

Men have to march forward towards enemy, trusting their comrades that they will cover them, fire on enemy and keep them safe. This is ultimate example of team work where team members keep their life on stake trusting another member of the group. There are many instances where goals can’t be achieved with individual efforts, team work is required to accomplish certain goals. War is the best example where you are risking your life for team. How can this kind of trust and bond within team be built?

Winning with Limited Source

To achieve success the availability of resources can be limited but the potential of mind is unlimited. During Kargil war, even minimum resources like snow boots, snow tents etc were not available, while launching an attack in freezing minus 28 degrees centigrade. The army troops were inspired by leadership skills and planning. How victory was achieved despite resource crunch and adverse situation?

Power of Ownership

During Kargil war when soldiers had to climb a vertical rocky hill to conquer the enemy, they could carry only limited weight so that climbing would become easy. That time most of them decided to carry ammunition instead of their food packets. To accomplish their task successfully they themselves prioritized the items which they wanted to carry. Food and water was compromised to accommodate bullets. This was true ownership of our soldiers to achieve their goal. How these army men show this kind of ownership?

Maximize your Potential

“Sweat in peace so that you don’t have to bleed in war”, is a motto of Army. Practice, practice and practice is the key to success. Prepare yourself for the worst condition then you will never be defeated. At the time of peace, army keeps on training their men in practice camps. They do drill and exercise daily so that their jawans and officers are always fit and active. There is regular medical fitness check-ups and many more rigorous activities which prepare them for war, where they will be face to face with death. What are the training every citizen should get to maximize their potential?
