There exist two categories of leaders: those who prioritize individuals and those who prioritize circumstances. Which category do you fall into? Leaders who prioritize circumstances may easily overlook the needs of individuals, driven by an underlying fear of adverse outcomes impacting them. Ultimately, those who favor circumstances above individuals exhibit a tendency to prioritize self-protection over the welfare of those they lead. In contrast, leaders who prioritize individuals, even amidst challenging situations, demonstrate the qualities of exemplary leadership. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”
As Ernst Gombrich stated, humans do not draw what they see, but rather what they know. They identify differences and interpret them as new based on the patterns embedded in their existing knowledge systems. Therefore, prior knowledge plays a crucial role in accepting new information. Humans do not truly feel or understand what they observe; instead, they feel and perceive only to the extent of their knowledge. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”
