Dear Hannah,
Anger is a leadership trait that can motivate strategic action & resolution if I do not become "too" angry (so angry that I cannot pray, think, learn, grow, and "go").
Why am I angry?
Why am I angry?
- I have rigid, exacting standards.
- My standard is not "the" standard.
- Equality requires both opportunity and circumstance.
- People are combinations of essence *and* function.
- People are equal in essence, but different in function.
- Mismanagement (and inequality) results when people are treated like functions.
- I dislike "people" and "project" mismanagement. I also dislike inequality.
- "People" and "Project" mismanagement / inequality are synonymous.
- "People" and "Project" mismanagement / inequality in a racial reconciliation ministry is painful.

Epilogue (December 22, 2016)
- I have helped "build" 6 organizations in my lifetime. The ones that have survived the longest are the ones whose culture I helped to create, control, and maintain.
- Oversimplification / Exaggeration (underestimating and demonizing "details" - and the people who respect them) exacerbates and exonerates "people" and "project" mismanagement / inequality.
- I dislike "people" and "project" mismanagement. I also dislike inequality.
- "People" and "Project" mismanagement / inequality are synonymous.
- I experience "People" and "Project" mismanagement / inequality from almost everyone in the orgs I have helped to build.
- Perhaps people are not cognizant of mismanagement / inequality (and are subsequently less likely to fight against it) because they also emulate the same culture that oppresses them.
Epilogue 2 (January 14, 2017)
- Civil discourse between dissenters promotes growth.
- Discern collaborators from customers (from "hustlers" and "musclers").
Love,
Daddy
