the TED Talk is actually very interesting. If you want the sparknotes for it:
- The first follower is an underestimated form of leadership
- A leader without followers is just a crazy person
- A movement must be public. It's important not to show just the leader, but the followers. Because new followers emulate the followers, not the leader.
- If you really care about starting a movement, have the courage to follow and show others how to follow. And when you find a lone nut doing something great, have the guts to be the first one to stand up and join in.
Real talk.
