This was just a random thought I had today. Leadership has been described as “influence” in some of my classes, so now when I hear the phrase “under the influence” I don’t think of an alcoholic – my mind takes me to another place – I start thinking about people who are under the influence of a leader – basically followers. This is just one of the many ways that these classes are redefining how I look at the world. Or maybe I should say this is just one way these classes are messin’ with my mind.
