In
the Matrix, Neo learns Martial Arts, but to really own the art form
he must first master The Matrix, because The Matrix is the framework
in which martial arts take place. I have had multiple conversations
with new managers, or managers who have learned specific leadership
techniques, but they don't understand the broader context and
framework in which Leadership and all its parts occur.
I
understand the simplicity and interest in the techniques, its why
consultants are paid to provide you the answer of how to lead, we
read books on leadership and management to understand the techniques,
but if you bear with me in this article I wont give you any of the
explanation of how to lead but give you a breakdown of the framework
so you can create new techniques based on your context, and since the
world is constantly changing, allowing you to adapt almost at will.
