The leader’s attitude toward others

Most business leaders tend to focus on their tasks, their own success, and the bottom line. Frequently unkind to subordinates.

One of our Clients became concerned that customer service was a growing problem since the company had earned the reputation of treating customers rudely. He hired a consultant to discover the cause. After dozens of interviews, the consultant shared his conclusion.

“You are the problem”. The way you treat your employees is the way they are treating your customers.

Philippians 2:3-4 tells us how we should view others.

It says, “Do nothing from selfishness or empty conceit, but with humility of mind regard one another as more important than yourselves; do not merely look out for your own personal interests, but also for the interests of others.”
These verses contain three radical commands that are impossible to obey apart from yielding to the Lord. When we carefully study them.

1. Do nothing from selfishness or empty conceit. ” We are to do absolutely nothing from selfishness or because of pride.

2. But with humility of mind regard one another as more important than yourselves. ” We are to think of everyone as more important than ourselves.

3. Do not merely look out for your own personal interests, but also for the interests of others. ” We are not to focus exclusively on doing what is important to us, but also factor in how we can serve the interests of others.

With this passage as the standard, how would we rate ourselves as a leader (on a scale of 1-10, with 10 being the best) who thinks of others as more important than yourself?

New TDS rule from July 1 to affect Doctors

Tax Deducted at Source (TDS) on benefits received from business for sales promotion will be applicable to doctors. The Central Board of Direct Taxes (CBDT) has released guidelines on the applicability of the new provision. The Union Budget had brought in the provision of TDS on such income to check tax revenue leakage by inserting a new section, 194R, in the Income Tax Act, 1961. It requires TDS at 10 percent for any person providing benefits exceeding Rs 20,000 in a year to a resident.

CBDT clarifies that in case of doctors receiving free samples of medicines while employed in a hospital, Section 194R would apply on distribution of free samples to the hospital. The hospital as an employer may treat such samples as taxable perquisite for employees and deduct tax under Section 192. In such cases, the threshold of ₹ 20,000 has to be seen with respect to the hospital.

For doctors working as consultants with a hospital and receiving free samples, TDS would ideally apply on hospital first, which in turn would require to deduct of tax under Section 194R with regard to consultant doctors.

Section 194R will not apply if the benefit or perquisite is provided to a government entity, like a government hospital, not carrying on business or profession, said CBDT.
