This
was the week a pope resigned – the first time in almost 600 years.
It
put me (and others) in mind of leadership.
U.K.
PR/Social media guru Neville Hobson took a look at leadership
principles from General Electric – and found six dimensions of leadership
that (interestingly enough) apply to social media as well.
My
friend Jim Wood (aka the Shrinking Camel) posted on determining your spiritual
leadership profile.
Michelle
DeRusha at Graceful went in another direction – and suggested looking at the
pope’s announcement by listening
with the eyes of your heart.
My
friend J of India (at Neither Use Nor Ornament) has been posting a series of
photos that could illustrate the problems of leadership – being between a rock
and a hard place. My
favorite (so far) is #2.
It
was also the week for Valentine’s Day, and I think my favorite post on the subject
was David Rupert’s “Love
is like a fun-house mirror.”
I
also saw a number of posts about what it’s like not having someone to send a
valentine to. The word, in short, is lonely. “Passing
Time” by pianist Paul Cardell captures that beautifully:
Nice roundup, Glynn.
