Leadership: Through the Lenses of Chinese Philosophy of Yin-Yang

Yin yang theory is the core principle of chinese philosophy and metaphysics. In Chinese philosophy yin yang metaphorically describes two opposite yet complimentary forces which are interconnected and interrelated and together form the whole. It is the concept of duality like day and night, hot and cold. It is the essence of many fields from martial arts to medical science. Yin suggests female, submissive, nurturing, yielding, receiving in approach while yang is masculine, aggressive, action oriented, giving in nature.
