Management lessons from AIRLIFT

I remember I was studying in eight standard during the gulf war. During the start of the movie I recollected how my dad and my neighbor would grab their attention at 7:30pm to radio to know about the situation during the gulf war. I recollected while watching the movie, many of our know people would visit our neighbor who had airlifted safely during the war and thank god, people didn't had whatsup so they could show sympathy and empathy to the family, which had everything but did had penny while landing, clothes to wear only memories.

Airlift is an excellent movie on the refuge crises that happened during the Kuwait war. The story and picturisation is wonderful. The movie show cases about the helpless by the governments and leadership of one man to move Indians to India. The complete movie is just awesome and I found the following are the key inspirational lessons that can be drawn

  1. War or Conflicts only bring misery.

  2. United we stand and divided we fall

  3. Every conflict gives an opportunity to showcase leadership skills

  4. Negotiation skills are very important

  5. Choices are inevitable

  6. Hurdles - Internal / External needs to be challenged

  7. Communication is important - however unless you put the feelings and pains of other, you cannot make it effective.

  8. Leadership is all about being humble, caring, showing path, walking the path and leading the path.
