Conductors of the Masterpiece
More than anything else today, followers believe they are part of a system, a process that lacks heart. If there is one thing a leader can do to connect with followers at a human, or better still a spiritual level, it is to become engaged with them fully, to share experiences and emotions, and to set aside the processes of leadership we have learned by rote.

Are "chief"s leaders. Elected or so called "hereditary". We are believe to follow blindly of our elders and chief. How can we follow our elders one hundred percent when they've been brainwashed by the almighty Christ. How can we follow or walk side by side with our chiefs when they are not leaders. The status-quo of leadership among our communities needs to be redefined immesnly. I'm not certain if we have strong leaders or even enough strong leaders. Although I believe we have the potential. When will it come that the people (specifcaly young people) start to claim the roles they are ment to. We are in a crisis. Where does your commitment run...
