When Nothing Makes Sense Around You

 
Week 20
 

I’m passionate about organizational life. I’ve always wanted to be a part of it. I started off in NYC. What a city! Such a fascinating hub of organizational life. I couldn’t wait to delve into the workings of these various-sized wonders of people, products, and services. I was enchanted by their spaces, their organization and efficiencies. I learned their ways eagerly. I lived in other cities, learned other organizational methods and manners.

I cannot pinpoint the exact time or place when it happened, but suddenly I awoke from my enchantment and saw organizational life with new eyes. Nothing made sense anymore. It was most likely my first management position that flipped the switch in my brain. When I finally saw what was behind the mysterious curtain of how decisions sere made and how “leadership” thought and acted when employees were not around. I forged on, however disillusioned. I held onto my integrity at every turn, trying to do good in a world more focused on profit-as-god than my younger self could ever imagine. I developed a knack for knowing just when to move on, protecting the only thing I truly possessed and could control—my integrity. But I haven’t lost hope, in fact, I’m ever more hopeful and getting excited once again.

I want to tear down that curtain that separates, nay hides, employees from management and leadership motivations and free the organizational truth that’s been trapped behind misperceptions and conscious or unconscious deceptions. Ambitious? Yes. Risky? Of course. An adventure? You bet!
