Bangalore: An entrepreneur is the leader of a team which makes him a role model. He inspires his team mates to do work efficiently and effectively and motivates him to achieve his goals. And when it comes to define leadership, no other name could match up Mahatma Gandhi, the father of our nation and probably the finest leader in the Indian history we’ll ever see.  And if you want to become a successful entrepreneur, follow these 6 lessons from the life of great leader Mahatma Gandhi.

“Have a bias towards action – let’s see something happen now. You can break that big plan into small steps and take the first step right away.”

Gandhiji was different from other freedom leaders because he did not only have a plan, but he put them in action, whether his peers agreed or not. Ganhiji’s action began with his own life -- from weaving the cloth he wore, to walking to the sea to make salt, to facing physical injury in lathi charges by the police. His direct actions influenced and inspired millons of others
