Thomas Paine famously wrote in his pamphlet "Common Sense" that 

"For as in absolute governments the King is law, 
so in free countries the law ought to be King; 
and there ought to be no other." 

This still resoundingly rings true. But the present Project 2025 Coup orchestrated by an international rabble of Billionaire dictators wishes Mr. Trump to play the role of King in the unfolding drama.

Elon MUSK: “The fundamental weakness of Western Civilization is empathy […]” This remarkable thought comes straight out of the reactionary philosophy of Ayn RAND, which is a rather simple-minded and self-consciously provocative [ie., in current lingo, “disruptive”] INVERSION of the traditional Christian system of values. In other words, reciprocity or the Golden Rule “Do unto others what you would have them do unto you” is for suckers. (It is also the source of another common Neo-Conservative inversion of meaning I would sum up as, Public BAD; Private GOOD.) As a public persona, Mr. Musk acts very much like a hero who walked straight out of Ayn RAND’s 1957 novel, ATLAS SHRUGGED.

SECRECY is to DEMOCRACY what mercury is to spring water:—an insidious, invisible deadly toxin that sometimes takes years to infiltrate from the single cell to the whole organism, but can, if allowed to proliferate unchecked, eventually corrupt the whole ecosystem, head to toe. 

A free and open society depends on the free and open flow of information.  This is what makes it essentially self-correcting. This only works when people mean and do what they say. This is the foundation of trust and truthfulness at any level, without which representative democracy quickly becomes dysfunctional and collapses.

Being efficient is doing things right, and being effective is doing the right things. Often, when we're being efficient, we're doing things better and faster, and as a result, we may be active but not necessarily effective.

Mi Mate Music – Giving Sound to Silent Struggles

Mi Mate Music is a purpose-driven creative project transforming lived experiences into powerful, emotionally charged tracks. Founded by Dennis Weston, this initiative supports individuals—particularly war veterans living with invisible injuries such as PTSD and other mental health conditions—in expressing what too often goes unsaid.

Through music, we help broken people tell their stories in ways that are honest, raw, and empowering. These tracks are more than just songs—they are lived moments, captured in sound.

Our mission is twofold: to support healing through creative expression, and to foster greater understanding of the silent battles many veterans and others endure daily. Every lyric and every beat is crafted to inspire empathy, connection, and insight into the challenges of mental health injuries.

Whether you're navigating your own journey or seeking to understand someone else's, Mi Mate Music offers a soundtrack grounded in truth, resilience, and hope.

Your support helps us continue turning real stories into music that matters.

What is it going to take to bring your strategy to life? Given the level of ambition involved, the standard approach is unlikely to be enough. It is going to take a Super Project to make it happen!

Welcome to the BETA version, we are leveraging technology to make the super projects research available faster and more widely (at this pre-release stage).  The goal is to share the outputs with those leaders who helped shape it.

Strap in, we're heading into the most complex or divisive areas of workplace cultures. It's the HR Grapevine podcast! Join us weekly for an in-depth chat with an expert in working life.
