Hammer Nails & Leadership

Hammer Nails & Leadership

In a newly constructed office, there was a Carpentry work that was going on, a young carpenter was nailing some wood with a hammer and he was surprised to see the crack in the wood. The senior carpenter took the wood in his hand to examine it and said, "you should have used a smaller nail and guided him."

The carpenter said " before we hammer, we should examine the wood, identify the size of the nail and determine the pressure with which we should hammer it"

The young carpenter agreed and corrected his mistake.

Communication is like nailing the wood, As Leaders we should understand our subordinate’s nature, we should choose the right words and we should use the right tone to nail our message.

It is not only the words that hurts, it is also the way it is conveyed.

Power is like a hammer, it can either empower or dis-empower a person

Jaby was casual in his appearance, but he was a thorough professional everywhere. During COVID, if there was one person whom I counted on to help people, it was Jaby; his car was filled with masks, sanitizer and an oxygen concentrator. His social bent of mind made him a good Samaritan. Jaby was a curious child, whenever we both met, he was curious to improve his skills and knowledge, and his quest for development was limitless. Jaby and I collaborated in the year ...
