領導管理的課題在多個學術和應用領域上均有深入的研究，但在宗教與公共管治方面，特別是在實踐和應用上的研究仍有待補充。本篇研究嘗試從佛法的角度去探討領導管理，從根本「緣起」和「無我」的義理出發，剖析領導管理的性質和在組織內的身分認同，為領導和管理者的角色重新定位。通過剖析佛和菩薩廣大的慈悲與智慧，呈現佛法在領導管理上的無私大願、自利利他的精神。論文亦以《心經》及《金剛經》的智慧，去檢視可持續的「緣起領導」管理模式，落實佛菩薩的願景、教化和修習。「緣起領導」模式特別切合在情商和智商有持續和深入虛耗的商界、社會服務界和其他專業，讓領袖除了在技術上，在「心術」上亦能夠得以提昇和淨化。本文亦以聖嚴法師倡議的「心五四運動」、「心六倫」及「四種環保」為例，探討部分實踐「緣起領導」模式的可能性。從每一個人的心開始，去轉化一個家庭、團體、企業、社會的管治。

In the fields of leadership and management studies, there have been substantial research in both academic theories and applied case studies. However, specifically in relation to the management and governance of religious and social organizations, much more practical research is required. By building upon the Buddhist doctrines of “dependent arising” and “selflessness”, this research attempts to analyze leadership and management models from the Buddhist perspectives, look into the nature of leadership and management, as well as the sense of identity. By illustrating the realizations of compassion and wisdom of the Buddha-s and Bodhisattva-s, the Buddhist spirit of selfless vow and genuine care is explained. With reference to the teachings of the Heart Sutra and the Diamond Sutra, Interdependent Leadership Management Model (ILMM)—a sustainable management model is introduced to exemplify the ideals, teachings and practices of the Buddha-s and Bodhisattva-s. ILMM is particularly relevant in corporates, social services, other professional fields demanding perseverance against emotional and intellectual drain. Accordingly, leaders can achieve transcendence and purification through not only technical but also “mind” skills. Using the “Fivefold Spiritual Renaissance Campaign”, “Six Ethics of the Mind Campaign” and “Four Kinds of Environmentalism” taught by Venerable Sheng Yen as illustrations, this research further explores the possibility of implementing ILMM to transform the governance of a family, an organization, a corporate and a society beginning from each of our minds.
