After doing my masterβs degree program in strategic #leadership, I have been yelling from the mountain tops that leadership development programs MUST shift their focus to #ethicalleadership.
We, as a country, have difficulty wrapping our heads around leadership in its diverse contexts.

I'm planning season 7 of my podcast. I want a bigger audience, but I'm not aiming for popularity.
Something that higher ed marketing and communications has taught me is that being popular comes with a price. Being credible and trusted comes with promise. #forouredification

Narcissistic leaders love to get rid of qualified folks and replace them with unqualified folks. Having qualified people around is a real threat to the ol' ego.

It's nasty work when someone with executive authority is using their power to work their personal sh*t out on everyone.

Leadership Development Must Change
Leadership development must change.
"It's no coincidence that narcissistic leaders neither like rules, policies nor processes that are designed to level the playing field for others. All the narcissistic leader can think is, 'What about me and what I want???'"

Leaders who operate primarily in self-interest leverage conflict to create chaos and dissension to control their βfollowers.β
Ethical leaders leverage conflict to create harmony and collaboration to uplift communities.

The Dangerous Combination of Narcissism, Bullying, and Racism
The dangerous combination of narcissism, bullying and racism threatens people's identity and value.
What do narcissists, bullies and racists have in common? A lot. And we're seeing it in the same 'house' among leaders who are hell-bent on doing away with diversity, equity, inclusion, and 'wokeism.'

Some of us arenβt in a position to just go off, as accurate as our sentiments may be about recent events.
Whether it means keeping your job, your clients or your sanity, consider a 24-48 social media break.
