Celebrating Kitsch & Crisis
LinkedIn
(2018)
Abstract
Recently a mentee called to share her devastating news. The division she led in her organization for the past 3 years was closing down suddenly, with no prior notification! In her initial shock, she sat immobile in her office and I was honored to be the first one she thought of calling. Sometimes that walk in the dark, lonely path of change, is not so lonely or dark with trusted company to hold your hand. As she shared how disappointed she was, I listened and learned quietly. I then shared some words of comfort. We moved on in our conversation, to celebrate and plan for this brand-new opportunity! “Celebrate?” you, the Leader-reader may ask. Yes. Celebrate! Devastating shifts are really powerful possibilities in disguise.
