Great Leadership does not mean running away from reality.
Sometimes the hard truths might just demoralize the organization. But at other times sharing difficulties can inspire people to take action that will make the situation better! Leadership in a crisis situation is very different from leadership in a time of normal conditions. The country is facing leadership crisis in all most all the fields. There is a great turmoil and chaos in the Indian politics and the political leadership is at the worst of its time ever before. Social leadership, religious leadership, institutional leadership and such other fields are not exception to this. The country is known by its leaders. India once upon a time was known by its leaders such as Swami Vivekananda, Mahatma Gandhi, Babasaheb Ambedkar, Maharshi Karve etc. Today there are hardly any such leaders who have their own charisma.

July issue of Samajakaryada Hejjegalu (Social Work Foot Prints) has a collection of good articles starting with T.K.Nair’s important contribution on social work profession in India. Social work has been recognised as a profession in most countries in the world. In the article “Social Work in India: A Semi-Profession”, Nair takes a contrarian view as far as India is concerned. The article explains social welfare, social service and social work in detail ; describes emergence of social work as a profession globally ; and examines professionalisation of social work in India. An interesting aspect of the article is the reference to social work in Cuba. Nair, with more than fifty years of experience as a social work educator and a researcher, concludes that social work in India is not a profession as of now. It is only a semi-profession.
