"If your action inspires others to dream more, to learn more and become more; you are a multiplier”

Yousaf Chughtai ; Qasim Ali Shah - A Multiplier

In this advanced faster world of competition, business cycles, and pressure on innovation with limited resource utilization, it is important for a person in leading role to multiply the qualitative aspects of their employees in an effective way. Now it is not enough to be a genius. It is all about how you make everyone smarter in your surrounding- it’s time to be a genius maker.

On December 25, 1980, out of a town of District Gujrat, Punjab, a person took birth. His family moved to Lahore. Since his teenage life, the books were an attraction for him. He took part in a talk about rivalries in his school life. He began his career mission as an officer in Pakistan’s considerate administrations. Later on, he started his academy in Gulshan e Ravi, Lahore. However with time he started teaching and step by step advanced into turning into an expert coach, open speaker, essayist, and columnist, written a couple of books and also has facilitated his own projects on Television, Radio and social rostrums like facebook and youtube along with his own channel under Ultimately established his own particular institute in Lahore. This astonishing remarkable person was “Qasim Ali Shah”

Now if we get deep in to life of this marvelous personality "Qasim Ali Shah” we will find him full of multiple valuable qualities like honesty, integrity, focusing, decision making, good communication, commitment, creativity and leadership, But if we look around we find much with similar values but not having such peak of sustained success in a short interval, So what is the reason behind?  The answer lies in a single word “Multiplier”.
A Multiplier is someone who uses their intelligence to amplify the smarts and capabilities of the people around them. Multipliers liberate people to think, to speak, and to act with reason. They create an environment where the best ideas surface and where people do their best work. The question “why” is at the core of their thinking. They ponder possibilities. They want to learn from people around them. They are a Talent Magnets, the multiplier can identify someone’s genius! They can get more from them! They are liberators and challengers! They think People get smarter by being challenged! They are decision makers!
“Whenever you apply positional leadership model, your team becomes hypocrite" Qasim Ali Shah
Qasim Ali Shah explains the lead with two models first one positional leadership and second is inspirational leadership. The first model is a reflection of diminishers and the second one is a beautiful reflection of multipliers. He identifies that hypocrite, hate, blame culture and loss of time, energy and resources are the major cones of a positional leadership model in which a leader is stuck to the point “I am what I am” or “I just lead the way I lead” which common but terrible mindset of a leader.
“Extraordinary works are done by heart, not as a job" Qasim Ali Shah
It is not wrong to apply positional leadership model but it must be modified with inspirational leadership model for effective and efficient teamwork.  The inspirational model is highly concerned with the behavior and attitude of the leader, a leader has all the power and authority in the project but despite of all that leader is operating with the strings of behavior and positive attitude resulting in pros which are alternatives of cons of positional leadership. Applying an inspirational leadership model will encourage team workers to consider the project as their own project and all these pros are directly proportional to efficiency.
“You are not successful unless your team members are moving towards success" Qasim Ali Shah
Qasim Ali Shah always created a motivating domain in his session and working place (organization) for comfortable, effective and intense bold thinking. He promoted rigorous debate and participation to help generate buy-ins and getting hard on issues and data, but empathetic towards the human. He is fully equipped with a self-deprecating wit and sense of humor, which reduces his stress and increase his empathy. He unleashes other people's genius to drive others' careers, and as an ultimate result, his organization became a reputed place to grow – Consequently shinning off like a virtuous cycle of growth and wins.
“If a man practices like a leader, God makes him a leader”

To apply inspirational leadership model Qasim Ali Shah suggests 5 major points for leaders to boost energy in your team:

  1.  Acknowledgment
  2.  Appreciation
  3.   Selfless love
  4.   Positive Feedback
  5.   Coaching

Coach always determines the potential of his human resource. Qasim Ali Shah use to say "I use to hire a team member or employee with the freedom of choosing his own task domain to express his full potential”
“One who never respects his work will never get respect" Qasim Ali Shah
Qasim Ali Shah didn't always try to do everything himself and for its credit; he learned the way how to hold back and give others margins for innovative think, trial, fail, absorb and grow. As a payback, he only expected the best work from his team. Qasim Ali Shah being a multiplier is not only a good listener but also a liberator. He always encouraged questions from his students in session as well as his team members and also acknowledged them.He usually says "Consider the rock bottom of your team as a crucial part of your work"
Qasim Ali Shah understood the fact that leading an effective team, uptake of their ideas and opinions, putting them into challenges after analyzing their capabilities and making sound decisions after sparking debates is the only way to lead an effective and cooperative way. He utilized every brain and hear every rising voice in his team and organization to create a movement instead of a revolt. He used to stretch individual capability and teamwork capacity of their employees.
He never assumed that his team is not smart, will never be able to figure it out without me, He always assumed his team smart and capable of making results out of tasks and launching new beneficial projects. He just defines his ownership, invest resources on team projects and hold his team accountable to him.
Qasim Ali Shah is an example of leaders who use their intelligence to amplify the smarts and capabilities of the people around them. When these type leaders walk into a hall, light bulbs glow overheads of team or audience; ideas start sliding and problems start getting solved. These are the motivational leaders who stretch their team beyond their limits to extract wonderful results, known as Multipliers; the need of today's world with an aim to do mu
