Boje presents • NMSU’s and New Mexico’s and Society’s • BIG LEADERSHIP MISTAKE
Montoya, the young professor shares that frustration. “The amount of bureaucratic red tape and the endless levels of hierarchy have become absurd, ” she said. “It’s not necessarily the reform that we need to get rid of, but the logic behind it. By importing corporate methods and management into the world of academia, our profession is losing its meaning. More
What’s Happening at NMSU is happening around the world! • “The result is that university presidents now replace seasoned professors who retire with [less experienced] teachers who cost less, ” said Patrice Vermeren, head of the philosophy department at University of Paris 8, located in the Parisian suburb of Saint-Denis. “So the quality of the professors has declined.
It is oppressive systems on the students
As State Funding Decreases & Administrators hire less costly adjuncts & raise tuition, COMPLEXITY increases • Administrators react by installing more digitalization, more surveillance hierarchies, more outcome assessments, more administrative assistants, and do more privatization, and so on. • Administrators build administrative orders that CLAMP DOWN on the remaining professional faculty, and technocratic structures to lockstep the adjuncts and everyone into a Taylorized system, a Fayolized administrative order, and a Weberian bureaucracy unequalled in all history.

Scaffolding is needed to move from what learner can do unaided to what the learner cannot yet do
Leadership is Dead! • It was dead 40 years ago, when one of the great leadership professors told me, “David Leadership has ben dead 50 years!” • 40+50=90 years dead • You will learn dead leadership theory, IN-THE-BOX, I call it the XYZ box, & Get OUT-OF-THE-BOX
IN-THE-BOX XYZ Leadership Where is Trump in XYZ Box?
What is OUT-OF-THE-BOX Leadership?
Tonya Henderson and I write OUT-OF-THE-BOX
Be in AWARENESS of our own Embodiment by attuning to Ecosystem and to Others. The Body is several triangle combinations at once. BODY = SELF + AWARENESS because the self exists by its awareness of its embodiment BODY = SELF + AWARENESS + ECOSYSTEM because the body is an ecosystem of trillions of microbiotic living critters in transaction and transformation with the macro ecosystems of place, planet, and cosmos. What Paula Gunn Allen (2008) calls are walking planetary ecosystem is not one body, rather it is a critter-conglomerate (See Boje's, 2017, Principle of Surrender).
BODY = SELF + AWARENESS + OTHER because to be a leader or a consultant or a person is combining SELF care with AWARENESS of the complexity that overwhelms everyone's life & relating to OTHERS (people, events, things, entities). In 2017 the relation of Self and Other in Awareness of the overwhelming fear, anxiety, turbulence. . has to be counteracted with Awareness of how to attune body to being fore-caring for self and for others. Be in Awareness of Otherization. The haves have minimal Awareness of the marginalization of the have-nots.
BODY = SELF + AWARENESS + OTHER + ECOSYSTEM because the body is all these bodies together. We are a walking ecosystem of trillions of critters in transaction and transformation with Other body-ecosystems, in relation to the ecosystems of micro and macro scales. This awareness of zooming in and out, from microbiotic to macro-socioeconomic, to mega-cosmos scale, and back again, is what is called fractal (See Boje's, 2017, Principle of Surrender).
We don't live in a 1 or 2 dimensional world ( in triangles at left) we are living in more than 3 D world (triangle at right)
Boje's, 2017, Principle • of Surrender 1. The Art of Listening. I cannot speak and listen at the same time. I can listen with an Awareness open to all the possibilities. • 2. The Art of Wisdom. Surrender is Not submission. Surrender is the wisdom of humility in our Ecosystem. • 3. The Element of Air. Breathing air is life. When you are born, you thrash for the first breath. In fear, you hold your breath, • 4. The Element of Earth. I am a living walking body that is its own ecosystem, but that ecosystem is in change with the ecosystems of Earth and cosmos. • 5. The Element of Water is life. The human body is 65% water, 75% at birth; home to trillions of critters. • 6. The Element of Fire. Our biological body is 37. 2 trillion living cells, an ecosystem of microorganisms and microbes, all living cells, some are symbiotic settlers.
