Un-mask: Re-orient "There two main ways in which leaders wear masks. Some conceal their perceived inadequacies and flaws behind the polished facade we have come to expect of “great” leaders, a bit like the Phantom from Andrew Lloyd Webber’s epic musical The Phantom of the Opera. Others take on a new persona at work that they feel is necessary for success, much like Jim Carrey’s character Stanley Ipkiss in the movie The Mask, who transforms into a flamboyant green superhero. Both types of mask undermine trust and effectiveness. They also create inner conflict, as leaders struggle to align their work and home lives. This three-minute animation provides a neat summary of the metaphor." source: Peter Fuda blogs.hbr.org/2013/10/leaders-drop-your-masks/ click-to-read-mo.re/p/3v6O
