Piloting and despooling

  Piloting and despooling The reality of JB’s confinement is suffocating. The air inside is thin, hot, and heavy with the scent of his own fear. His flight suit, usually a second skin, feels like a lead weight. Through the visor, he sees the control panel—a blur of familiar red and green warnings pulsing just inches away. His fingers twitch, aching to override the sequence, but the shimmering silver nanoweave holds him in a vice grip.  He is a creature of action reduced to impotent stasis, staring at salvation he cannot touch.

Personal Framework for Leadership Development. Introduction My leadership journey is about self- realisation , via an evolving pathway of opportunity and application. Whilst my development has obvious milestones, these stepping points do not lead towards a premeditated leadership goal. My approach has not been as intuitive as Magnus Walker Go with your gut feeling nor has it been as linear as Charlie Bell, who spent decades climbing the McDonald's corporate ladder. I have not instigated or created an innovative company that has changed the world. Nor have I transformed one that was struggling to survive and now leads the way. I do not have the knowledge expertise to change a domain of thinking. However, my approach and willingness to explore new thoughts of action has lead me to a keen interest in leadership within educational settings. I am particularly interested in leadership paradigms that can enable creativity, change, innovation and entrepreneurship within schools. My...
