LEADERSHIP: STORY OF TRUE FRIENDSHIP
Leadership is a true friend to his team members. He accepts the
friends as they are and love them and motivate them to accomplish the
mission. True leaders wants to see there team members at the highest
position in there life.
The dictionary definition amply describes Mike Corbett who, along with
his friend Mark Wellman, on July 19, 1989, started their assault on El
Capitan. El Capitan is a sheer rock wall 3,569 feet above the floor of
Yosemite Valley in Northern California. It is one of the most difficult
mountains for rock climbers to scale. The combination of difficulty and
danger is sufficient to test the strength and courage of even the
world’s most elite climbers.
It took Mark Wellman and Mike Corbett seven days to make the climb.
During that time they encountered temperatures of up to 105 degrees and
wind gusts that made the ascent even more difficult. When they reached
the summit, Corbett stood in triumph but Mark Wellman just kept his
seat. He’s a paraplegic and the first person to scale El Capitan without
the use of his legs.
Wellman had given up climbing in 1982 after he was paralyzed as a result
of a fall. From that point on the only rock climbing he did was in his
dreams. Then Mike Corbett convinced him they could climb the mountain
together. Wellman certainly couldn’t have done it without Corbett, who
led the way and helped Wellman move through each stage, higher and
higher. Perhaps the pinnacle of friendship and courage was reached when
on the seventh day Corbett was unable to secure the pitons in the loose
rock skirting the summit. Knowing that a misstep would send them both
plunging to their deaths, Corbett hoisted Wellman onto his back and
clambered the remaining distance to the top. On September 4, 1991,
Wellman and Corbett set out to conquer Yosemite’s other big wall, Half
Dome. Thirteen days later they reached the top of the 2,200 foot
vertical Tis-Sa-Ack route on Half Dome.
True leader understand the need of a team player and satisfy it without
occurring words .Real leader lead his team player to a peak level of
performance by becoming their true friend.
In Indian Wisdom , Krishna become true friends of Arjuna during the
most needed time of life and drive him through wisdom to win over all
evils of life.
