Small People
Written By : Bakhtiar Hakeem
Small people never make genuine leaders. They sacrifice the least and always remain in search of a ‘master’, a ‘senior’ or an ‘umpire’. Whatever be the size of their chair, pay/perks and the glitter as a celebrity; all are short-lived.
SMALL PEOPLE
In Praise of Small People
Small people, many a times, rise to higher positions and pedestals. However, they are seldom self employed or least; entrepreneurs. They are mostly salaried, and paid people. When small people head large organizations, they:
o Fail to accommodate human variations and uniqueness. And fail to image the synergetic effect of variety, innovations and differences in ideas, approach and capabilities.
o Do not, or have a little capacity to appreciate the fact that all men are His best product. And all are same by pedigree; he/she is one of them. They are usually their own god.
o Remain in some sort of contest and race and competition, mild to severe, to get and collect and gather more from the people in immediate contact.
o Seldom look at contribution as a means of pleasure and measure of growth.
o Measure their growth by all parameters which deal with and encompass growth of ego.
o Would take ‘brave’ and ‘extra-ordinary’ measures when directly or indirectly they are the beneficiary.
o Remain oblivious, hazy or fail to focus on common identities and superior objectives.
o Have very few questions; but answer, dictums and rather, ‘orders’ for everything.
o In the name of Company, Organizations and Institutions actually satisfy their egos.
o In the name of good phrases and clichés like ‘sab say pehlay Pakistan’, ‘Party Interest’ or ‘Discipline’ enjoy and satisfy sadistic self.
o They Honor, appreciate, pay back and reward for personal loyalties.
Small people never make genuine leaders. They sacrifice the least and always remain in search of a ‘master’, a ‘senior’ or an ‘umpire’. Whatever be the size of their chair, pay/perks and the glitter as a celebrity; all are short-lived.
