Choose your nut - Disturbing Link Between Psychopathy And Leadership

Intuitively--regular sentient folks have suspected their leadership may be psychotic or even worse.

As much as no one wants despicable events, heinous behaviors and savage approaches these always seem to be a constant throughout human history, even unto today.

In almost all cases of chronic catastrophic event there is a decision maker who displayed abhorrent behavior regardless of consequence to innocent victims.

If so many of the world population crave basic peace and tranquility, then how is it we live in a perpetual state of fear, be it fear of violence, fear of corporate activities, fear of larceny or any number of life elements proven to be dangerous to health and well-being.

With collapse of every kind looming on the horizon one eventually has to consider the source of the condition. It certainly seems time to examine the mental state of our leadership be it governance, corporate or otherwise.

To-date--folks who question the motives and activities of leadership have been labeled conspiracy theorists with the connotation that they are somehow off-base with their thinking, even though the majority of conspiracy  suspicions have proven overwhelmingly accurate.

So choose your nuts with care --
The Disturbing Link Between Psychopathy And Leadership
It is not the image we like to have when we think of business leaders. But troubling research indicates that in the ranks of senior management, psychopathic behavior may be more common than we think – more prevalent in fact than the amount such seriously aberrant behavior occurs in the general population.
At first blush this may seem counterintuitive, even outrageous. We tend to think of psychopathy as the province of criminals, with leadership qualities that may land someone atop a fringe religious cult, say – not in a boardroom. But before discussing the research, let’s consider for a moment why this possibility is actually less bizarre than it may initially seem.
The hallmarks of the psychopathic personality involve egocentric, grandiose behavior, completely lacking empathy and conscience. Additionally, psychopaths may be charismatic, charming, and adept at manipulating one-on-one interactions.

It is possible through the ages we have consciously selected the psychopaths among us to be the tribal leadership, it may have been an advantage to have a leader known to other tribes as brutal and  unhinged. During barbaric times, having a psychopath as leader may have provided some modicum of protection, but have we reached a point where such selective criteria is now redundant or even undesirable?

In my book yes.

It is defiantly time to review cohabitation relationships, corporate and government conscious and motivation, seeking a new planet is not necessary, rendering this one hospitable is the sensible thing to do. If the personal preferences of the world population ever prevailed, the planet would be a very nice and sustainable place.

With do-days ability to filter out individuals with character faults and mental challenges it should not be difficult to shift the nature of our leadership to individuals with the most desirable traits for achieving peaceful, well-considered and well intention-ed agendas, or at least hold honesty as an ideal.

Until we recognize the Archon presence among us and fail to segregate them to a place of ineffectiveness, psychopathic leadership will prevail along with predictable heinous result

Somehow I think this will not occur, at least within the conventional framework of candidate selection... but who knows?, true democracy may yet prevail and the majority voice may yet be heard.

I suppose we can only hope.

Stay tuned...

Women and children overboard

It's the  Catch-22  of clinical trials: to protect pregnant women and children from the risks of untested drugs....we don't test drugs adequately for them. In the last few decades , we've been more concerned about the harms of research than of inadequately tested treatments for everyone, in fact. But for "vulnerable populations,"  like pregnant women and children, the default was to exclude them. And just in case any women might be, or might become, pregnant, it was often easier just to exclude us all from trials. It got so bad, that by the late 1990s, the FDA realized regulations and more for pregnant women - and women generally - had to change. The NIH (National Institutes of Health) took action too. And so few drugs had enough safety and efficacy information for children that, even in official circles, children were being called "therapeutic orphans."  Action began on that, too. There is still a long way to go. But this month there was a sign that ...

Not a word was spoken (but many were learned)

Video is often used in the EFL classroom for listening comprehension activities, facilitating discussions and, of course, language work. But how can you exploit silent films without any language in them? Since developing learners' linguistic resources should be our primary goal (well, at least the blogger behind the blog thinks so), here are four suggestions on how language (grammar and vocabulary) can be generated from silent clips. Split-viewing Split-viewing is an information gap activity where the class is split into groups with one group facing the screen and the other with their back to the screen. The ones facing the screen than report on what they have seen - this can be done WHILE as well as AFTER they watch. Alternatively, students who are not watching (the ones sitting with their backs to the screen) can be send out of the classroom and come up with a list of the questions to ask the 'watching group'. This works particularly well with action or crime scenes with ...
