Comment on Do you turn your back on injustice? (201-4) by Karl Ingersoll

Barry – doesn’t it seem a bit tragic to you that most of Jesus’ battles with injustice, were with the religious elite? If leaders so choose, they could be fighting all the time … Some make that choice. I don’t see Jesus fighting with the world around him … There was an ongoing spiritual agenda that opposed Him and he fought the “powers and authorities” … As far as those he came to save, I don’t remember Him confronting much, as we would think of confrontation. I do see Him radically representing God’s love and mercy to the less religious …

Bottom line … we have to confront. It needs to be with love and in love, “in meekness instructing those who oppose themselves”. Theses days, I think that “follower-ship” is more critical than leadership and , in fact, may be the best definition of leadership.

Blessings,

Karl

Comment on Are you in process of selecting a team? (199-2) by Scott Ryan

I agree after reading the great post above. Here is my opinion – By letting your aspirations and distinct objectives flow from your natural life purposes and values you will be grounding this natural alignment and applying it in harmonious activity. Like flowing water you may have the ability to create when essential, watch the symptoms of life and adapt accordingly. You realize that you just can’t work out willful management through all circumstances, and your purpose just isn’t to conquer and defeat your environment. You don’t act like a self-centred opportunist who watches chances for gaining personal benefit on the expense of others. You don’t manipulate your strategy to the front without considering the bigger picture. Your actions and intentions are genuine with the pure virtues of your principles and the individual traits of the values.

Comment on Do you see change on the horizon? (198-2) by The Pro Marriage Counselor

Wonderful change management advice! In my experience the real challenge can be in the actual transition stage, when people are moving towards and through the door of organizational or systemic change.

This is where the state of the art in performance management intersects with change management. I think of high performance work systems and particularly, behavior analytic based interventions that harness the power of positive reinforcement to insure follow through on the specific, optimal behaviors that define the transition process itself.

- Thought provoking article. Thank you!
