Leadership between fiction and reality
Often, reality overtakes fiction as the real world always contains the fiction germs, the latter growing and becoming susceptible to provide unpredictable results. The individual and organisational development vectors can generate, in the future, leadership patterns difficult to anticipate at this moment. The social and economic networks, the new technologies will define different ways of communication, collaboration, management and decision-making. The nowadays leadership theories risk to become, very soon, inoperative. Those experiencing reality have the great advantage to feel “on spot” its evolution trajectory. At this time it is not easy to determine which of the dependence forms are dominant: the ways eras create their needed leaders or the ways extraordinary leaders change eras. I rather act and also propose my fellows to act, so that the contexts created by us turn into laboratories allowing for the tomorrow leadership theories to develop. Between meditating and not acting, we should all choose being meditative in action.
