how to design a movement
derek shivers teaches us, in under 5 minutes, how to start a movement:
“remember the importance of nurturing your first few followers as equals so it’s clearly about the movement, not you…the biggest lesson, if you noticed — did you catch it — is that leadership is over-glorified…it was really the first follower that transformed the lone nut into a leader. so, as we’re told that we should all be leaders, that would be really ineffective…if you really care about starting a movement, have the courage to follow and show others how to follow. and when you find a lone nut doing something great, have the guts to be the first one to stand up and join in.”
