I suppose this touches on the psychology of leadership too—which is a mess, by the way.

Well, what's the fundamental characteristic of a leader?

Here's one: a leader is someone who knows where he or she is going.

Well that would be the first thing, is like, how are you going to lead unless you have

And then you need to be able to communicate that.

And you communicate your destination with a story.

Now if I want to motivate people—and that's not the right way to think about it, because

That's management idiot speak, that is—What you should so is figure out something that's

worth doing, that you really think is worth doing.

Something that you would actually commit a substantial proportion of your life to.

And you should have deep reasons for pursuing it.

And then if you're a leader, well first of all you have that established, but the

second is that you can communicate that, okay, and you communicate that in a manner that

also appeals to other people's sense of purpose.

And so you'd say to someone, like if I wanted to move forward with you on an enterprise

I would have to say, “Well here's the purpose of the enterprise and here's the

reasons that it's not only eminently justifiable but more justifiable than anything else we

And then I'd have to say, “Well here's what's in it for me, and here's what's

And here's why the two of us together can further the enterprise and further what's

in it for you and further what's in it for me.”

And then you have a situation there that Piaget, Jean Piaget, the developmental psychologist,

So an equilibrated state is a situation that's set up by two or more people where everyone

is participating in the state voluntarily.

So when he got that, he derived that notion in part by looking at how children set up

So if children are going to set up a pretend game, what they do is they negotiate a little

It's almost like they generate a little play and they assign everyone their parts,

and then they manifest the play, and that's how they think.

But everyone has to accept their part voluntarily, right, or the game won't continue.

Now Piaget's ethical claim, ethical analytic claim was that a game everyone plays voluntarily

is more sustainable and productive than one the people have to be forced to play.

And that was his fundamental distinction between the utility of freedom versus the utility

Because you could say, “Well the authoritarians win.

But Piaget's claim was the enforcement costs are so high that the free society will outcompete

Now if you're going to set up an organization you can set it up on authoritarian lines.

But then you're basically compelling people to perform with punishment and fear.

And the way you do that is say “Look, here's the goal, here's your role.

Here's what this will add to your life practically and in terms of, say, significant engagement

And then if you can do that the people will, you know, with certain other preconditions

in place – competence, for example, and a certain amount of conscientiousness – then

people will participate in the game voluntarily.

And so that's – well, if you have any experience in the world at all in complex

processes you known that that's the optimal circumstances under which to engage with other

It's like “Hey, we're all in the same boat.

We're all in this together and it's working out for each of us as well.”

Now, there's a corollary to that, which is an interesting one.

So let's say you have your organization and you have your goals and you're out to

And you can tell a good story about that.

Now you really want to get people on board and so now you've got two choices.

You could tell people “Go home and spend four or five hours and formulate a career

plan about how you're going to contribute to this organization,” or you could say,

“No, no, you go home and you formulate a plan for your life that includes your job

And then imagine you do that with 100 people in each group.

Then you run those people in a head-to-head competition for a year to see who's most

The answer – the people who formulate the plan for their life.

So you can gain a ten percent increment in corporate level productivity by having your

We have a program like that (called Future Authoring) online that thousands of people

have done now that increase the probability that university students would stay in university

So and that's part of the narrative issues.

It's like what you want from your employees is, well, you want them to be doing something

useful with their life that they're engaged in, because like if they can't do that for

their life what the hell makes you think they're going to do that for your organization?!

And then you want them to see how working for you serves their higher order purpose.

And if it doesn't, because maybe they can't formulate that integrated hierarchal relationship,

well then they should find another job, because that isn't the job for them.

If your job is running at cross purposes with your life, how the hell are you going to be

At least you're going to be stymied constantly by the internal contradiction.

So imagine what you're trying to do is you're trying to get everyone pointing in the same

But I don't mean by eliminating all diversity of opinion or anything like that.

It's like the overall organization has a point, and then everyone within that organization

has their point but they're integrated within that overarching coherent narrative.
