It is always debatable. Does effective leadership result in creating a culture of meritocracy? Or does meritocracy create effective leaders within the organisation? Air India’s troubles seem to be both – a lack of the right leadership and a lack of a culture of meritocracy. One wonders whether one should throw out the baby with the bath water!
For me, Singapore has always been a place in the world, where integrity and honesty are held high in the list of requirements for individuals, corporates and governments. Lee Kuan Yew left his philosophy and thinking as a gift to future generations on how to manage a community and a country - with a magic mix of “democracy and autocracy”. Some thinkers like Phil Kotler are trying to promote such thinking especially since they now find that democracy has not been the perfect answer for the US – though they all admit that it is only the best of all forms of government that are available. All alternatives have many more negatives.
In May 2021, Phil Kotler celebrated his 90th birthday. In February 2023, he was awarded the lifetime achievement award at the Rise World Summit, organised in India (this must have been the umpteenth achievement award he would have received, over the last few decades). My path crossed Kotler’s in 1987 and, since that time, he has been my role model, philosopher, friend, guide, and well-wisher.
