Ok guys, serious post for once (yeah, shut-up haters; you loved it the past couple of years).
Tony recently published an article on his site about dealing with toxic leaders to fix the Air Force.
I look around my aviation community (remaining unnamed to protect the guilty), and I just don't see it. Guess I'm either lucky, clueless, or one of the culprits (again, shut up haters. Actually trying to be serious here).
Who's in a community out there that actually breeds multiple toxic leaders? Is there a root cause or is it a conglomeration of problems? Is your community on the upswing or trending downward?
Conversely, who is in a community with leadership that really "gets it" from Sq CCs on up? What are they doing right to sustain the greatness of your aviation community?
Really think about these answers. They could make a difference.
