I hate this pervasive notion that leadership is unquestionably a good thing. Leadership is bullshit. It's implicitly a dependency on getting other people to do things for you.
Instead, we should value the abilities to work independently and in mutual cooperation.
- veddox 6y agoI would argue that the role of a leader is to provide the coordination that effective cooperation requires - in a sense, to foster interdependence. I believe that it is impossible for any group of people to work together without some form of leadership taking place. I also believe that the bigger the task, the more important it becomes to have good coordination and leadership. Of course, that‘s not to say that there aren‘t plenty of „leaders“ out there who‘s idea of their job is to „get other people to do things for you“.
