A 3-level leadership model was proposed for the different levels of management. The study of leadership is both an art and a science. As the Chinese saying goes, “You can drag a cow to a river but you cannot make the cow voluntarily drink the river water.” In the study of leadership, ‘to drag a cow to the river’ can be considered a science – that is by putting a rope around the neck of a cow and physically dragging the cow to the river. However, ‘to make a cow voluntarily drink the river water’, is an art. Similarly, a leader can undergo different leadership development programs to hone his leadership skills (a scientific approach). “Leadership is not about just changing one’s own destiny; it is about changing the destiny of others.” On the other hand, to be wise is an art.
