I think I need to put into my talk this line that keeps running through my head

So many leaders want people to trust them, which is exactly backwards

In organizations, positions are typically appointed through the hierarchy and authority of the organization. However, like trust, "leadership" is earned: slowly built and quickly lost.

Asking how to earn trust means admitting you have failed, and more importantly means committing to a change. If you don't uphold those changed behaviors, you will simply lose trust again and consequently fail as a leader no matter how the organization helps you fail upwards.

Hey, USian Democratic elected officials:

This is what we want •you• to be saying, believe in, and follow thru on.

Do this. Put it on repeat. That’s how you get (at least some of) the 1/3rd of registered voters who don’t vote to get off their asses and vote in the midterms.

Ignore the Democratic Strategists and their tired old ideas that are about keeping the status quo.

Enough is enough.
