#82: Vision.

Vision. A spoken imagining of the future grounded in cause and connection. A North Star.

If believed, speaking a vision gives the people confidence that the stated North Star will guide leaders as they face challenges and make decisions out of sight. If believed, having vision engenders trust.

And without it, people will fill the void with worried imaginings and all manner of disturbances. Static is what we call the noise created by disturbances. Static also means we aren’t going anywhere.

Bonus: communicating a clear vision allows those who aren’t onboard to self-select out before situations arise that expose the rift.
