A Special Request for a Fire Extinguisher

Before acting, leadership must see. But this requires a different kind of skill...

In 2024, I met Diana Karusisi, a reputed and very respected Bank CEO during lunch at Marriot Hotel.

She described the work of a CEO as occasionally; “Putting off spontaneous wild fires.”

Could CEOs be experiencing burn out? The idea to put off the fire was set on fire.

I dutifully and humbly promised a fire extinguisher. Under promise, over deliver!

The Zibrah Code not only proactively prevents but also puts off the fire.

According to Zibrah Code, wide angles represent adaptive capacity for learning.

Closed or narrow angles result in diminished responsiveness to wisdom or correction (grounding).

At Grounding Fade Zone (GFZ) reality fades as the mind fills in the information gaps.

This being the last low cost intervention zone, a leader must act early to keep angles wide and open to learning.

Beyond GFZ, the Grounding Intercept Point (GIP), acknowledgment paradox sets in.

Every evidence and facts are either ignored or rejected altogether.

The Angle Lock Point approaches, angles narrow even further which locks wisdom out.

Wisdom require space to be effective.

Wisdom prevents GFZ and avoids ALP.

Wisdom seeks, often a bit too late, to understand the root cause of the problem.

And suddenly, a lightening strike!

Without the lightening arrester, the fire extinguisher is evidently overwhelmed. "Water!!"

Wise leadership proactively prevents and avoids the fire long before it happens...

An experienced fire fighter aims at the base of the flame not on the flames.

Effective delegation; the bottom up approach delivers more results and benefits:

"Effectively delegated authority requires no leader to implement effectively," The 13th Professional Mindsets' opening quote was inspired by Diana Karusisi.

Humble Diana Karusisi, is an effective, committed leader. She is gifted and very articulate in sustainable systems and resource development.

And the right thing is the only right thing to do right. Innovative Diana knew exactly what to do. The Banking sector has never been the same. From breaking news to automated paperless systems, improved fronts, diaspora banking... a long list.

But even effective delegation does not absolve responsibility. Strategic risk management is both innovative and proactive.

Zibrah Code provides a new lens with the Unit Square of Truth as the focal point.

The Zibrah Code examines the interaction of Truth and Perception to understand how belief behaves and provides a reliable preventive lens for understanding human behavior in organizations, families, learning institutions and complex social systems.

Before acting, leadership must see. This requires a different skill than analysis or decision making...

It requires geometric awareness; the ability to recognize where belief is located and how it is moving.

This discernment, the unique foresight that sees beyond the horizon, makes The Zibrah Code: The Geometry of Truth and Wisdom Model, more than just a fire extinguisher.

Angles show what words cannot tell.

Please what must a proactive leader see beyond the horizon as everyone else waits for evidence?
