We Need Alternatives to Politicians!

There is an ongoing discussion over at Leadership Turn, in the post Leaders who DON’T: politicians, which I think is of interest to many readers of The Art of Leading. It states what many people know to be true: there is little, if any, true political leadership in the U.S. and abroad. Standard politicians nowadays and true leaders act upon very different priorities. Namely, the politicians just want to get elected and let that cloud their judgment (even many well-intentioned ones, I’m afraid) while true leaders care about their values and ideals more than they do about elections. There are alternatives, but each one requires ACTION, and not every one involves politics:
- Social entrepreneurship
- Think tanks
- Not-for-profits
- Philanthropy
- Pressure groups (not lobbyists)
- Etc.
Please, for the sake of whatever country you are from, and of society’s well-being, act on your passions and overcome politics.
