Fixed Point
"All I need to be to you and everybody on this dome is a fixed point." - Stacker Pentecost
I recently watched Pacific Rim again. It’s an action movie that’s entertaining because of big special effects with giant robots fighting giant monsters.
Like most “save the world” movies there are a few big speeches, and at one point the military leader in the movie, Stacker Pentecost, says “All I need to be to you and everybody […] is a fixed point.”
Change is constant, and often out of our control. As leaders, one role we can play for our team is to be a fixed point, someone or something steady in the midst of a storm.
