#leadership

we as #furries should be working to elevate #bipoc voices both within and outside of the fandom regarding peoples lived experiences because they also affect us but they affect others who are a part of these intersectional experiences in a way worse way.

this may sound weird, but i actually think we should be working on #AffirmativeAction for #leadership positions within the #furry #fandom.

The world does not need "new work"

The world needs "free work" - organizations that are run in a way to free human beings from the shackles of paternalism, coercion and command-and-control. People are made for freedom. People deserve freedom.

"Some advocates hail sabbatical as a solution for burnout. But time off, in the absence of a broader strategy, is just an anti-burnout placebo employers dole out to placate chronically stressed employees, unlikely to deliver lasting results when employees return to the same job conditions they left."

My words (above) and the quote in the video are from my new post:

"𝙒𝙝𝙖𝙩'𝙨 𝙎𝙤 𝙍𝙖𝙙𝙞𝙘𝙖𝙡 𝘼𝙗𝙤𝙪𝙩 𝙎𝙖𝙗𝙗𝙖𝙩𝙞𝙘𝙖𝙡?... 𝘿𝙤𝙣'𝙩 𝙃𝙖𝙩𝙚 𝙐𝙨 𝙒𝙝𝙚𝙣 𝙒𝙚'𝙧𝙚 𝙤𝙣 𝙃𝙞𝙖𝙩𝙪𝙨"

Big learning over the past few years: #leadership is mostly about the channeling and amplification of human energy.

There are other aspects of course, but the critical link is the ability to distill all of the complex, wild, disorganized, confusing crap in companies into something people can latch onto and get motivated about.

It's taking the raw materials and helping everyone—yourself included—create energy from them that fuels forward motion.

I've been reading a great deal of Herbert Read, most recently his Politics of the Unpolitical.

One of the things I'm struck by at the moment is how Read challenges what he calls the "general desire for leadership" which we're told is the attribute that people need to develop. (I spent far too much of my time as a teacher dealing with the quotidian horror of schools' obsession with "leadership" so something about which I'm acutely sensitive.)

Read sees leadership as an aspect of the Will to Power and associated with ideas of discipline, command and obedience. He points out that when the everyday call for "better leadership" (or "efficiency" ) is made, it's actually a call for increasingly authoritarian measures and requirements of compliance. Read talks of the "evil of assertiveness" which "poisons minds with pride and ambition". He llinks leadership with bullying and tyranny.

Read calls it a "cult of leadership" and links its outcome with fascism.

Instead, Read argues that leadership is frequently confused with individual initiative ("fundamentally the impulse to originate, to construct, and, in relation to other individuals, the desire to distinguish oneself") which is something that should be seen as positive.

Read offers collective responsibility as the corrective of "leadership":

"Collective responsibility is the alternative to leadership, and the counterpart of equality. If each individual in the social body is a responsible member of that body there is no need for external control. The body acts as an organic whole, and acts spontaneously."

Read does, however, accept that "leaders" are needed by society - a somewhat Romantic notion:

"the [wo]man of imagina­tion, the poet and philosopher above all, but equally the [wo]man who can present ideas in the visual images of painting and sculpture or through the still more effective medium of drama —the idea that it is this individual whom society should accept as its only leader."

Imagine if our leaders were really drawn from the best poets, philiosophers, artists and writers!

In companies, this kind of three-dimensional chess and "optimization mindset" becomes the norm, so balls are always dropping. When balls are always dropping, there's a culture of not catching. Instead, leadership rewards teams for throwing new balls into the air and even more impressive attempts at juggling.

OAKLAND, Calif. (KGO) -- Oakland Mayor Sheng Thao is back from a trade mission in Vietnam, but she returns to a city that is seeing a spike in crime.

"'I feel there that is an uptick in crime, and I know that that is happening. But that is not unique to Oakland," says Mayor Thao.

Big exhale...

A palate cleanser for the start of the week from the late, great Octavia E. Butler…

"Choose your leaders with wisdom and forethought. To be led by a coward is to be controlled by all that the coward fears. To be led by a fool is to be led by the opportunists who control the fool. To be led by a thief is to offer up your most precious treasures to be stolen. To be led by a liar is to ask to be told lies. To be led by a tyrant is to sell yourself and those you love into slavery."
