Often, telling you about the famous character, The Count of Monte Cristo, I felt that would be much easier or you to understand the real human side of leadership. As only certain thing that stands in the way of achieving the desired performance is your own interior "design" - that integrates your true identity and your true potential to create results.
After escaping from the dreaded Castle d'If, and after finding the amazing treasures of Cardinal Spada, Edmond Dantes has created a new identity buying the title of Count. His only thought was to punish his perpetrators and to help his old friends. The performance that he gave to everyone in the role of the Count of Monte Cristo was effective enough to open for him new horizons and new opportunities for achieving goals. His success was complete.
Edmond managed through a rare skill to give life both to a comprehensive character, the more perfect, and also to a charming "show" with prime. He played with an unparalleled virtuosity an extremely credible role, of a filthy rich man, always appeared dressed in a cleverly designed outfit - that of a magician, who gave the prestige, as well as an aura of power, of an authentic leader dominating the world.
An impressive performance, a good idea, a well thought scenario, as only a perfect director can make it, the formula for a qualitative leadership and a presentation of big days. This is the formula for a qualitative leadership.
Only a man of great intellectually abilities can portray with a great realistic force and at a level of high art a unique character by his complexity, moving the "public" by the innocence and simplicity. Only a perfect artist can give a realistic interpretation of the character that plays and cause a sensation.
Without a thought-driven process, sometimes at high psychological tension, there can be no overcoming of life experience based on the history of painful wounds. Just as without being creative and expansive, you cannot reach relatively easy goals, which, responding to the soul, are active extensions of the prisoner’s condition of the past, forced to redefine its own identity repeatedly.
Inspiration, the only direct feeling that contains the consecration of an important role according to the reactions and expectations of others, is not a happy gift of nature, but a rich inheritance of those creative merits that do not provide for holiness, but justify you to receive guidance from the Lord, harsh within the limits of a correct severity.
The thoughts of vengeance taken all the way, sometimes the only forms of interpretation of the divine punishment to committing iniquity and transgression, make you the worthy and legal master of this, often casual, heritage.
Concerning the Count of Monte Cristo, artistic craftsmanship, originality and actor’s image played a fundamental role in resetting the relationship between the scene and the backstage, while affirming that reality of the divine embrace, the firm conviction of the existence of an unexpected and superior power. In their absence, all his purpose would have been lost, it would have been wasted.
It is clear that only by combining the contradictions between the attributes of action, permissive attributed to God, the authentic artist is formed.
Dare to take the first step worthy of being taken into account by other people: compose a big role in that to blend perfectly with that of the leader and to anchor it in your script. You will have a huge success only if you give proof of fantasy, if you succeed an authentic innovative interpretation by a full role of substance, full of passion and energy.
Demonstrate, releasing force of character, that you are tailored to a very important role. And try capsizing the entire concept of leadership - be a magician ! Be a magician who by his skill and theatrical accomplishment gives proof of great creative capacity in his role. So do not lack the favorable appreciations from the "public" grateful for your beautiful performance.
Your personality will be defined as that of an artist of great sensitivity, made for powerful and complex roles, where there is no possibility to flaunt. Your leadership should not resemble to a circus where people laugh out loud. But one authentic, real, serious, full of emotions and feelings, adapted to your own vision - a show that what seems impossible becomes possible.
A leader has to make a big role in any circumstance. He never does figuration. You cannot take a leader and put him to interpret the role of a servant to bring a tray and serve without losing any of it. The servant is only figurative, but can never play the role of a leader.
It is said that once King Charles IX asked Catherine de Medicis, after the night of St. Bartholomew: "How do you think I played my little role?"
The same I ask you: How did you play your own role? Have you succeeded in interpreting with an unparalleled virtuosity the leadership role in the "play" that you created by yourself? If not, leave for the future this role and give it to another one truly gifted.
The Leadership Play is an explosive combination of masks, events, trials, emotions, and life lessons that you need to know how to assemble and dominate so that you build the perfect character of a spiritual confession of emotional sincerity.
If you aspire to the title of leader, you need to know from the start that a tremendous job expects you in a "play" where you should held permanent headlines, a play written and directed by you which final is anticipated by you, but is in favor of all. Depends on you the quality of your performace and the benefit you provide.
