As one gains altitude over the clouds of self, one perceives a fairer version of self. Fear and hope are twin sides of our image. If we overcome self-inflicted fear, we are left with one concern to focus on: hope. Drawing a linear plan in a changing environment is like painting on a dry valley bed stone, knowing too well that the stone will submerge in an imminent inundation. As the flood recedes, the algae trace on the redeemed stone recounts a story of an erstwhile fallaciously cheered plan. Engulfed in a moment of darkness and wrecked in a sea of despair, the guts to figure out an anchor at the shores of life is the difference between survival and demise. Leaders do not readily bench your winning players for the loss of a game. Remember your PsyCap people and fend for your diamond reserves. Challenging times expose their DNA. They metastasize, with you or not, as they sense a threat. But to hit that exocytotic moment, you ought not to have been one off them but one of them. A ruminant goat set up a cud-chewing business by a mountain edge. A hoof anchored on a volatile rock, a leg suspended in the air, a knee acquired a branch, a muzzle operated the leaves, and a hoof reserved for surprises. The goat was aware of the mountain edge, the volatile rock, and the open air underneath. If there is one universal feature in most extinct organizations, it is their leaders’ resistance to change. Caterpillars morph into butterflies to see the fairer version of themselves. As they fly to explore new horizons and embrace new opportunities, they do not forget how they transformed through repeated ecdysis processes. Toxicity is never exposed from a résumé; as malicious hearts escape institutional filters to the zenith, organizations rot from the top and decompose downward, generating an ambiance of nonchalance and proliferating opportunism. Typifying fire alarms at intervals domesticates responsiveness, repels fear, tames surprise, provides a false sense of safety, induces complacency, diverts resources away from preparedness, emasculates agility, and heightens crisis impact. Fire drill is a metaphor for a managerial subsistence tactic that only cares about what must be done today. The MeToo may have faded because it was built around a case, not a cause. A movement needs not to be built around an issue. It is like labor unions asking for a pay rise. Value perception is as exclusive as DNA, as inimitable as a fingerprint, and as peculiar as feeling. See the bodily motion of a baby breastfed by a loving mom. See the face of the mother.
