Any Leaders Among Us?

Leaders who look for  possibilities in people tend to see more brainpower at work. Even those gifted few, though,  will tell you that they often feel overwhelmed about how to capture and capitalize on the mix of talents that exists in their organization. … especially differences across genders. When you think about hidden or unused parts of both men’s and women’s brains, it’s easy to see why some leaders give up -- or why others settle for a one size only model.
     I like to help leaders to visualize the trillions of brain cells each person possesses, and then to imagine each brain containing cells that number more than stars in a galaxy. Then it's time to imagine how each person at work comes in at a different developmental stage in relation to the oranization's needs.… Overwhelming? That may not be a strong enough term to describe the angst for leaders who first assume responsibility for hidden or unused talents…? It gets better...
    
Come on a journey through a moving camera and you’ll see what I mean.  galaxy.jpg
     Look at a moving photographic view  and follow a progressive journey from distant galaxies into the depth of the smallest atom particles of earth. Check out this incredible site from a science professor who writes books about the philosophy of science.     
To visualize the brain cells that make-up each human brain, see the Milky Way at 10 million light years from the Earth. As you move with the photographs shown here compare the many maturity spaces people could fit in, as the camera moves you through space towards the Earth. 

Imagine the collective brainpower of men and women if we could design a galaxy of opportunities that draw from their similarities and differences. See your business plan in similar successive orders of magnitude. Compare how you started in the distance galaxy of different stars through a progressive camera lens until you landed beside a tall oak tree just outside the buildings of the National High Magnetic Field Laboratory in Tallahassee, Florida . You were still not there in terms of where you could move deeper.
    
Once you  land on earth in those photos, you begin to move deeper from the actual size of a leaf into a microscopic world that reveals leaf cell walls, the cell nucleus, chromatin, DNA and finally, into the subatomic universe of electrons and protons.
    
Catch anything new about the possibilities of looking at life from new perspectives because men and women exist with uniquely different talents? I’ve bookmarked the milky way and I plan to run it next time I forget to expect deeper insights because perspectives reside richly in both men and women.

Great article and I love the video moving through the distant galaxies all the way to quarks!! Every human is completely and wonderfully different. The true leaders, I believe, see and know this and use it to the advantage of both the company and employee. Everyone benefits when an individual is used to her fullest potential!
