Trumping Trump and Lessons

Here, when an opportunity to serve as a leader of either a small group of friends, in an association, committee, political, academic or even religious positions.. you dare not say it out if you are interested. people tag you as proud or just too forward. Even if you knew you have the capabilities to move that unit forward..you have to let someone nominate you or you go arrange behind doors how you would be nominated... this had made many drivers of our community shuttles to be passengers in the back shuttle's back seat. We even have the culture of nominating people who clearly say they are not interested (although many are..but have to say that so as not to look proud or too willing.. seriously!) This singular culture of not allowing whoever is capable and willing to lead is killing us and will continue as long as we appoint people based on nepotism... It's not right.. once you have an open opportunity.. ask who is interested and if you choose anyone and the fellow says no.....
