Leadership Contrast: Men and Power

Thursday, December 22nd, 2011

 

Lots of deaths of powerful men in the past year. Many have been dictators who had tons of money and little integrity.

 

 

 

Think about these 3 questions:

  1. Ever wonder why we permit these men to “rule” us?
  2. Ever wonder why millions will stay quiet and let those who have found the path to brute power to keep it?
  3. Ever think about how we can make a better difference and make a better world?

Vaclav Havel was an actor, a playwright, an artist. Maybe there is a clue there. The arts are a way to the heart. Even the word eARTh gives us a clue. Expressing oneself through music, movement, painting, poetry, theater touches the deep core of who we are. Maybe, just maybe, we should be finding leaders who have a different kind of power to lead us. Havel had that mysterious and important blend. What about you?
