Leaders on Leading ~ Exploring the Nominalizations

As I embark on my summer project I am contacting those people in “leadership” positions to invite them to sit down with me so I can interview them.

With the early replies I have received it sounds like there are many who will be interested in participating

I think that simply by doing this project I will open a lot of people up to considering how they are moving through their world. By writing this article it will allow others to see how we don’t always do things the way we would like to, and to perhaps question why they are not living all aspects of their lives in a way that is meaningful to them.

My intention is to de-nominalize the word leadership and find out what it really means to the individuals who are in senior positions within my organization. My intention is to also find out from those who are considered leaders and are not in senior or even supervisory positions… just what does it all mean to you?

I hope to shake things up a bit, have people reflect on the way they are currently “leading” and consider within themselves, is it serving me? My hope is for my own self as well, is the road truly paved with good intentions? And if everyone hold a very similar vision…where is the disconnect happening?

Yes indeed it will be an interesting summer.

Life is good and there is always more.
