PIKESTONES

SELFLESSNESS

A head held high sees far.
Feet planted firmly give stability.
Look up! and send power down.

If leadership follows the led,
If leaders act as servants,
Then Tao gives order.

Look keenly - and be blind to vanity.
Listen intently - and be deaf to flattery.
Let Tao speak - and pride be dumb.


Self?
Less!


Human organisations can become moribund and dysfunctional if the interplay of personalities distorts and impairs their purpose.
Self-interested motivations foster intrigue, duplicity, corruption, institutional malaise and even the petty gripes of 'office politics'.

Encouraging effective teamwork and cooperation involves recognising and harnessing individual talents, and covering for individual weaknesses.
When groups work harmoniously, each member comes to regard success of the joint enterprise as the hallmark of their own honour and value.
