b"Episode 42 Often, two people stare at the same situation; one sees very much, the other very little to nothing at all. Everyone sees something different, too. Two people will filter a leader's actions differently, react differently, explain away differently, judge the leader differently. What reaction do you get from certain experiences? Watching a symphony? Listening to Tupac? Catching a sunrise? The reactions or qualitative experiences we have with different leaders are similar. Not a one size fits all. This creates many problems for analyzing and understanding leadership. Each of us has unique experiences in our interactions with individuals: leaders and followers. No two interactions are the same. But, I think we can learn about leadership from observation.\\n\\nIn this episode, Leadosophy walks through the benefits and power of observation, identifying things we can hope to learn about leadership and followership, i.e., the accrual of leadership knowledge through observation.\\n\\nSeason One: Foundations of Leadosophy Leadosophy is the fusion of leadership and philosophy. We use philosophical thought to deepen our understanding of leadership together."
