I don’t want to justify the failure in the world’s leadership – and yes, it is a failure, there is no other world that may explain what is happening. However, there is a simple reason that explains it: lack of adaptation.
You see,
leaders are masters in dealing with uncertainty, particular the one created by
a crisis.
Most of
them are also good in overcoming the obstacles that are fruit of a disruption.
So with
both paradigms, the leaders can adapt and conquer.
However,
very few leaders are ready to deal with uncertainty
and disruption at the same time. It is
kind of someone who is an expert in surviving an earthquake being affected by
it plus a 10-meters wave…
This is why
many leaders have chosen to attack the threat that was more visible, but have
ignored others…
How to
adapt to the convergence of these two paradigms? The best way would be to
invest time and energy strengthening the leadership over the self.
At the
extent our leaders become self-leaders,
it will be easier for them to find certainty within and on the basis of that,
they will be able to meet the problems that emerge with the disruption. Adaptation
would happen from inside the self, from their thinking and decision-making
process, instead of coming as a reaction.
In this
way, we can create a better leadership for our civilization.
