"Nothing happens unless first we dream": Edification = a cornerstone of #leadership
What is ‘Edification’?
- Bringing out the best in others - true & sincere
- Verbally pointing out others’ strengths
- Being a ‘good’finder
- Building someone up, while being true & sincere, rather than tearing others down to maintain your own standing.
Edification replaces witty tear-downs,…
Harnessing proactive #Change is a key rung on the #leadership ladder

Consider Yourself an Expert? Think Again - Forbes
“What worries me the most is that we have a natural inclination to trust those who are branded as experts, even before they open their mouths, and this is a dangerous tendency in a world where experts have the accuracy of a chimp playing darts.”

How much metaphorical thought, in depth/undercurrents v. literal thought, surface/waves, is this “expert” employing when discussing an idea or issue?
