#Leadosophy is the fusion of philosophy and leadership. What does this mean?
It’s simple really: apply critical thought and reflection to the art and skill of leading others. How many times have you asked or been asked: What’s your #leadership philosophy?
#Leaders should reflect upon the idea that two REALITIES exist (at a minimum): (1) REALITY that’s independent of our understanding and, (2) our perceptive experience of that reality. This leads to multiple questions for #leadosophy i.e., the fusion of leadership and philosophy.
It’s easy to conflate both REALITIES. For leaders, conflating both ideas of REALITY potentially leads one to dogmatically claim he or she owns the truth and understands current reality as it is.
Be wary of those who claim they “know” REALITY 1, but you and I do not or cannot. Leaders adopting this mindset are oppressive to some degree; they will have greater difficulties accepting new ideas + engaging in dialogic efforts with others to co-create REALITY.
Not enough focus on good followers in the game of #Leadership.
Good followership entails: deliberate observation of and reflection upon Leader X, Y, or Z’s leadership effectiveness or lack of effectiveness.
Followers should seek to identify and evaluate: how leaders’ X / Y / Z actions, attitudes, decision making, belief in others, character traits, etc., affect those at the individual level, and affect those within a team framework. We could extend this into our communities.
