Leaders too Hyperactive to be Visionary

Addendum 18:14hrs: Just found this picture. Via sisterspock.

Political leaders lead. Lead by going forward. Lead by going ahead. Lead by pioneering. Lead by setting a good example. Lead by being role models.

Leaders lead by anticipating the future. Lead by anticipating our future. The future of the world. Future of energy. Future of Europe. Future of mobility. Future of society.

Leaders lead by shaping the future. Shaping ideas. Visions. Shaping strategies and actions to make these visions come true.

Leaders lead by legislating, and by dispending justice. Justice, giving us and businesses a framework to become better people and businesses - to create a better world for all of us.

Or at least they should - but they don't. They love to be caught by situations. Love to react. Love to sit and wait for problems to be solved in hyperactivity to demonstrate they act.

They do not understand the concept of political leadership. They fail at leading. They follow. Follow the media. Follow some monopolistic businesses. Monopolies they created themselves.

These political leaders call politics what we call trade-offs, compromises, on our expense as a country, society, individual. Our future and wealth, mental and material.

Compromises compromise everything we are and have!

Dear Leaders, get your act together! Stop procrastinating! Concentrate on the relevant. Make yourself redundant. Gather people around you, who are more visionary than you, with higher expertise and more courage, with higher commitment, passion, and engagement. People loving their country!

Develop a vision bigger than yourself - grow by realizing it!

Enjoy the agency leader version, too!
