The Pathology of Ungrounded Development
One of the ways psychological development can become pathological is if the current primary level from which a person operates isn’t grounded in skillful integration of the previous level.... - Paulleverich...
Trust Is Earned. Integrity Is Revealed.
We live in a world where everyone wants to be trusted, but fewer people seem willing to do the work that makes them trustworthy. We talk about honesty, accountability, ethics, and integrity, yet we live in a time when people can lie to your face, manipulate the truth, break... - david...
There is still too much 1st tier hierarchy in Dalio's 2nd tier heterarchy, meaning that he is (or was) ultimately the King of Bridgewater such that the cult(ure) trended toward very clever yes-men sycophants organized in circles of gate keepers (this is my own guess, without... The Relateful Company should embrace more job titles
We’re under-appreciating orange. We’ve included the green critiques, like the classic: "What gets measured gets managed — even when it’s pointless to measure and manage it, and even if it harms the purpose of the organisation to do so" - V. F.... Deliberately Development Orgs are bullshit?
I expect others here read and were influenced by An Everyone Culture: Becoming a Deliberately Developmental Organization by Kegan and Lahey? I remember first being introduced to it in a circling retreat probably 8 years ago or so.... - david...
Surprised Vance seems personable and Walz seems worried
Just on a vibe-quotient, Vance is leading strong.
What I wish they would ask
What is something you admire about the other candidate?
What policies do they have you wish you could agree with?
What’s something you don’t fully agree with your President on?
Feels like our closest examples to this in the past century, in the US President case, are JFK and George W Bush (a bit tongue in cheek for sure)? Or from a different angle one might say LBJ who fought his way up the ladder the hard way, his whole life...probably a number of... - josefine...
"I believe life is trustable and I wonder if I’ll be alive to see the good that will come from this huge swing.". This sentence moved me a lot and has been working in me since I read it last week.... Desire for control and a deep confidence that I know the way even in the face of massive pushback.
Embracing my polarizing viewpoints and trusting that there will people that emphatically support me.
in terms of leaning into disagreement—the secret service fucked up, but whether or not someone should be fired is super context dependent. I’m reminded of this classic story of the salesman who lost a million dollar deal at IBM, trying to resign, and his boss saying "Why would I... - nat...
Yeah, I brought what was really happening instead of how I thought I should be. Like, I showed up tired, frustrated, with a headache, etc. I used to think that I needed to be something else to lead, i.e. calm, collected, energized, etc.... Read the full post AMA with Jordan Myska Allen

What I’ve Learned in the Last Twenty‑Four Hours I’ve learned that clarity comes when I slow down enough to actually look at things instead of reacting to them. I’ve learned that truth doesn’t hide — it waits — and the real work is training my eyes to see it.... - geofffitch...
I always think of trust as contextual - trust to what? to be an effective leader? to be honest? In our current world, the virtues are paramount. Without rebuilding or social fabric, policies don't matter much because we don't have a way to build a consensus towards any common... - Godless Guru...
Good to see that you overcame the false notion that exemplifying transparency and dedication doesn’t automatically cause others to follow. That some or most others follow is to be desired, but still not realistic, for we really only see desirable attributes in others and... - renee...
When I wrote that i was thinking of Stephen Covey’s Circles of Influence. It presupposes one can define that well for oneself. Hopefully in defining well it includes more of what you refer to here- am I stepping up enough and influencing enough where I can?... Read the full post Being Out of Sync in a Group Meeting
I was just in a meeting that I was leading where, almost every time I spoke, someone else spoke at the same time. The other person would continue speaking and I would stop. It was as if my timing was wrong; I was out of sync with the group....
