Leadership is Impacted by Three Cultural Factors: Dataism, Shock, and Compulsion

Abstract

The medium of the first Enlightenment was reason. Numbers were opposed to myths. Reason “displaced” imagination, desire or corporeality. The dialectics of the Enlightenment then let this turn into (number) barbarism, which kills life. Ultimately, it is the barbarism of the Cartesian “split” of res cogitans and res extensa.
