I was once a leader…or so I thought.
My corporate bosses told me so, and as a manager leading a team of project coordinators, I was expected to believe them. They told me that I was an essential cog in the wheel. I was also expected to follow the corporate line by convincing my team that “creating shareholder value” was their top priority.
You must have heard the term creating shareholder value. It sounds extremely important, profound even, and ambitious. In truth, it’s simply a diabolical ruse to make the working class work harder to ensure that rich people get richer. It becomes a soul-crushing endeavour once you understand the deception.
After a while, I stopped believing them and decided that leading is not all it’s cracked up to be. I threw in the towel and opted for early retirement. Now, I’m my own man; I neither lead nor follow.
Let the corporate thieves find another follower to lead for them.
