Action . . .


(from https://www.nytimes.com/2019/01/05/opinion/sunday/trump-impeachment.html)
". . . Consider the following descriptions of Trump: “terribly unfit;” “erratic;” “reckless;” “impetuous;” “unstable;” “a pathological liar;” “dangerous to a democracy;” a concern to “anyone who cares about our nation.” Every one of these descriptions comes from a Republican member of Congress or of Trump’s own administration. . . They know. They know he is unfit for office. They do not need to be persuaded of the truth. They need to be persuaded to act on it. . ."

Model . . .

. . . boss?




Recently read an article  Adapted from "Becoming Steve Jobs: The Evolution of a Reckless Upstart into a Visionary Leader." Copyright © 2015 by Brent Schlender and Rick Tetzeli. Published by Crown Publishers, a division of Penguin Random House LLC.  The book is purportedly the “only book about Steve recommended by the people who knew him best,” according to Apple. And the article begins with reference to one of Steve Jobs favorite expressions, which was, “that’s shit”, an expression for which Mr. Jobs clearly owned no patent and held no monopoly. Not that the authors implied that he did. But the article goes on to detail how brusque Jobs’ manner was with his employees and how they pretty much had to group together to combat the ‘damage’ that brusqueness could potentially do. And it seems that all involved parties, in retrospect, have no qualms about the way things transpired under the management of Steve Jobs.  Some praise him.  Others rationalize his actions. Certainly the firm fared no worse for his technique.  I certainly understand such personalities.  Many people are drawn towards them in capacities either professional or personal.  They are visionary.  They are exciting.  They are stimulating. The complete experience with them never leaves one unfulfilled or unsatisfied. . . well, at least from my experience.  So while this article and book both appear to praise, or at least not criticize, the extremity of the Steve Jobs-type personality of the short-tempered, boisterous and callous leader/genius, should it encourage the development of like-leaders/geniuses?  The danger in too much admiration is the propagation of short-tempered, boisterous, callous and brusque personality leaders/geniuses who are more short-tempered, boisterous, callous and brusque than actual leader/genius.
