This is the National Geographic Picture of The Year. The black images are shadows of zebras. Zoom in and you will see the actual zebras.
If you are someone in a position of #power, please recognize that your shadow looms larger than you think. #Thread
As a #leader, everything you say (and don't say) and do (and don't do) is magnified- maybe even disproportionately. You cast a large shadow and take up more space in others' minds than you think.
To you, you're the zebra. To others, you're the shadow.
Doing the work to develop #selfawareness can help you better understand and mitigate the unintended impact you may have on others just by being in a position of power.

"A man and his wife went to the zoo. They found a Monkey who was passionately playing with his female. His wife said to him, "What a romantic animal."
Then, they found a Lion and his Lioness separated from each other; the silent Lion sat alone in his corner as if the....

The late king of a certain community had ten wild dogs. He used them to torture and eat any of his servants who made a mistake. One of the servants gave an opinion that was wrong, and the king didn’t like it at all. So he ordered that the servant be thrown to the dogs.

The servant said, “I served you for ten years, and you do this to me? Please give me ten days before throwing me to those dogs!” The king agreed.
In those ten days, the servant went to the guard who looks after the dogs and told him he would like to serve the dogs for the

When the ten days were over, the king ordered that the servant be thrown to the dogs for his punishment..
