Three elements of a movement
Read this today and thought, right on! (is that too Tom Peters?)
Senator Bill Bradley defines a movement as having three elements:
1. A narrative that tells a story about who we are and the future we are trying to build
2. A connection between and among the leader and the tribe
3. Something to do—the fewer limits, the better
Too often organisations fail to do anything but the third.
