WATERLINE ARTICLE #10: Revenge and Feuds Are Always Lurking.

When you allow in-groups and out-groups to manifest and operate in modern society, the group becomes more relevant than the individual. As a civil society and liberal democracy we need leaders to preserve individualism and encourage bridging beyond ones in-groups. If they don’t, the status mentality of the group will elicit honor and shame – creating feuds and the desire for revenge. Join Scott this week as he continues the discussion on the dangerous impact in-groups and out-groups can have on the collective.

CONTEXT ON THIS SERIES

In 1917, T.E. Lawrence, who you might know as Lawrence of Arabia overthrew the Ottoman Turks in WWI in modern-day Iraq and Syria, using strategic human connections at the local level. He did so by going into tribal environments and creating a level of trust that unified various tribes around one thing that they could all agree on through storytelling of ‘what could be.’ He wanted to help others who followed behind him do the same so he wrote The 27 Articles to share with them.

Scott has taken these Lawrencian skills and adapted them to the Rooftop Leadership methodology and in this series will share the 27 Waterline Articles for the Rooftop Leader with you so that you are better equipped to lead through the disengagement, distrust, and distraction brought on by prolonged isolation, low trust, and uncertainty. If you’ll lean into these and integrate them into your life and business, you will be more attuned to the people you lead and be able to look at human behavior in a new way that allows you to lead at a higher level.
