BCCI President Sourav Ganguly recently spoke about leadership and how to extract talent from your team during an online class.
He said that backing the natural talent is important.
“Adaptability is one of the key leadership qualities. A leader should tap the natural talents of the team members. You cannot make Rahul Dravid act like Yuvraj or make Yuvraj be Rahul Dravid,” Sourav said.
He explained how to handle pressure.
The only way to handle pressure is to live with pressure. The more pressure you handle, the better you become at what you do. You should always steer your fears away to get the best results,” he added.
The 47 years old revealed that we should learn from our mistakes.
“The greatest of the leaders make mistakes, but as long as the intentions are right, everything else will fall into place. You should learn from your own mistakes and leave them behind to be a better version of yourself,” said Ganguly.
“Don’t let your losses get you down, that’s a part of growing up. Learning from failures will lead you to success,” he added.
