    © 2018 JETIR December 2018, Volume 5, Issue 12 www.jetir.org (ISSN-2349-5162) Mahendra Singh Dhoni: A Leadership Study of an Enigma Hardeep Singh Assistant Professor, Centre of Professional Enhancement, Lovely Professional University, Phagwara, Punjab (India) Abstract The article is about the talismanic former wicketkeeper and skipper of Team India. It is a study depicting arrival of a young man full of immense potential, his technique of stewardship leading into staggering success with some share of controversies along the stunning journey. Dhoni was handed over the captaincy of the team in 2007 and he took the cricketing world by storm with his unique style of leading the team. The case elucidates the journey of a small town boy who emerged as a stellar performer for Indian team. Under his leadership, Indian team went on the scale tall mountains courtesy his sheer grit and determination. The entire team had great belief in him and he as a skipper was liked and adored in the cricketing circles. His attributes of being mentally tough and leading from the front inspired players to put their best foot forward in every match in tricolors. Without an iota of doubt, Team India blossomed under his leadership and continues to do so as he passed the baton to young sensation and virtually the king of batting Virat Kohli. Keywords: Captain, Leadership, Great, Enigmatic, Performer Introduction Leadership, the quality of changing the attitude and behavior of your co- workers and instills in them the trait of zeal and confidence.

  • Games and Sports : a Gateway of Women's Empowerment in India
    Games And Sports : A Gateway Of Women’s Empowerment In India Dr. Krishnendu Pradhan ABSTRACT “Sport has huge potential to empower women and girls” - Remarks by Lakshmi Puri; UN Assistant Secretary-General and UN Women Deputy Executive Director. The purpose of this paper attempts to shed light the status of women’s empowerment in India through games and sports and highlights the issues and challenges of women empowerment in the field of physical education and sports. Sport is an integral part of the culture of almost every nation. However, its use to promote gender equity and empower girls and women is often overlooked because sport is not universally perceived as a suitable or desirable pursuit for girls and women. Today the empowerment of women in games and sports has become one of the most important concerns of 21st century. But practically women empowerment in games and sports is still an illusion of reality. It is observe in our day to day life how women become victimized by various social evils. Women empowerment is the vital instrument to expand women’s ability to have resources and to make strategic life choices. Empowerment of women in games and sports is essentially the process of upliftment of economic, social and political status of women, the traditionally underprivileged ones, in the society. Today sports and physical activity as a strategy for the empowerment of girls and women has been gaining recognition worldwide. Women could be empowered through education, sports and physical activities and by giving them equal opportunities in different walks of life. Research on sport, gender, and development indicates that sport can benefit girls and women by: Enhancing health and well-being, fostering self-esteem and empowerment, facilitating social inclusion and integration, challenging gender norms and providing opportunities for leadership and achievement.

    IJOSTHE ISSN: 2349-0772 | Volume 5 Issue 6 December 2018 |www.ijosthe.com Rajeev Tiwari Barkatullah University Bhopal, India [email protected] A Flamboyant Fighter – Yuvraj Singh Yuvraj Singh, a famous name in the world of cricket. He is such a kind of person and a sportsman who does not require introduction. Cricket fans see him as a stylish player who hits the ball with brutality, but there is a soft-hearted, gentle person somewhere deep inside. One of his childhood neighboring friend was my colleague at that time. After 20 years down the line he is my closest friend. From him only, I come to know about Yuvaj and his life. According to him, Yuvi is a great friend and a nice human being. Great friend, because he is the one who takes initiative to collect all the yesteryear friends and meet at one place and nostalgic time together. Nice human being, because he participates in many charitable events charging no money. He also runs a charity foundation, which provides aid and economic support who are fighting life-threatening diseases, mainly cancer. We, as spectators, are just enthralled with his success and mesmerized with the style he is leading his life. I am sure most of the fans of the sport, cricket, are unaware of those facts he has gone through his life. Though he was born with a silver spoon in his mouth, but then he still had to break the chicken peas with his nose to taste the success he is enjoying. EARLY YEARS His father also was cricket player but he could not get the success he longed for.
