This Is Not A Fabrication: The Leadership That Is Not Willing To Lead

This Is Not A Fabrication: The Leadership That Is Not Willing To Lead

LJ & Jocelyn talk about one of the most fantastical stories they've ever heard involving organization leadership.  Mindblown is the least of it.  It defies all explanation.

What happens when a board decides that it does not care and is not willing to lead?  What happens when a leader is not willing to lead their organization or business?

They discuss procedural justice, the ethics and rules that not only show up in this story but also can impact other organizations and the staff that are trying to make a difference in the world.
