How to Be a Leader Michael Herlache Mba

Seeming & Being a Leader The majority of the leadership books and courses are concerned with how to seem like you are a leader rather than how to actually be a leader. Thus, they speak about popularity to an ingroup, body language, framing, and histrionics (i.e. pretending). Implicitly, they assume that man is a superficial being rather than a reasoned & loving social being. In actuality, what makes a leader is the commitment to Human Progress, being a moral person, and using/applying reason to the five aspects of life and dominating in them; philosophy, love, finance, health, & social. How to Be a Leader, the book, and Alpha University are concerned with how to be an actual leader & seem like a leader. Seeming Like a Leader Content focused on seeming like you are a leader implicitly assumes that man is only a superficial being rather than a reasoned and loving social being (the distinction). Leadership as a popularity to ingroup contest emerged from this content as a replacement to true leadership (Human Progress). It sought to claim that man's value is merely a function of his popularity and conformity to the ingroup rather than his reason & love. This value function, since it is based upon ingroup/outgroup at its core is a zero-sum methodology where there are mandated winners (ingroup) and losers (outgroup). Those pursuing leadership as a popularity to ingroup contest have no standards for their message and directionality other than merely being popular and thus are not concerned with true Human Progress from either a philosophical or scientific perspective. Being a Leader Alpha University's focus is actually being a leader as well as seeming like a leader. Truly becoming a leader has to do with Human Progress and passion in the five aspects of life; philosophy, love, finance, social and health: The goal of an actual leader is Human Progress by building perpetuities from a philosophical perspective (distinctions drive permanent euphoria at level of the mind) and scientific perspective (financial perpetuities provide for greater standard of living and time spent enjoying true love & health). Being a leader is at its coe positive sum & synergy focused; using reason to add value. The leader uses reason even when it is not popular and pursues his own intentionality to build perpetuities despite criticism and negativity from those around him particularly from the ingroup. Leaders defend the reasoned regardless of race/creed/color from biased bullies (zero sum) that try to force conformity to the ingroup on them. Leaders have standards for their lives, aiming for Human Progress. Alpha University has created a methodology for doing so, the Leadership Methodology: 1. Descriptive -> 2. Prescriptive -> 3. Work Breakdown Structure -> 4. Execution
