The Builder's Manifesto

The Builder's Manifesto - I read this a few months back and just returned to my notes from the article. It's a great piece that's well worth taking the time to read (in my humble opinion. :)) I certainly don't agree with the article in its entirety but I certainly value the information presented. A portion of it is included below:

The 21st century doesn't need more leaders - nor more leadership. Only Builders can kickstart the chain reaction of a better, more authentic kind of prosperity.

How can you become one? Here are the ten principles of Constructivism (contrasted with these principles of leadership), just a few from the article:

-The boss inspires fear; the leader inspires enthusiasm. The Builder is inspired — by changing the world.
-The boss says "I"; the leader says "we". The Builder says "all" — people, communities, and society.
-The boss assigns the task, the leader sets the pace. The Builder sees the outcome.
-The boss says, "Get there on time;" the leader gets there ahead of time. The Builder makes sure "getting there" matters.
-The boss knows how; the leader shows how. The Builder shows why.
-The boss makes work a drudgery; the leader makes work a game. The Builder organizes love, not work.
-The boss says, "Go;" the leader says, "Let's go." The Builder says: "come."
