    Strategic Absence Leadership's Cultural Impact S4E24
    Jul 23 2025

    Title: Use Absence to Increase Respect and Honor


    Description:

    People value what is scarce. By limiting your availability or stepping back from the spotlight, you can increase your perceived value. Absence creates desire and makes others appreciate your presence more when you do show up. It’s a powerful tool to control the perception of your worth.

  • Decisive Action Crushing Weakness, Building Culture S4E23

    Decisive Action Crushing Weakness, Building Culture S4E23
    Jul 16 2025

    Title: Crush Your Enemy Totally


    Description:

    Half-measures are dangerous. When you defeat an enemy, ensure they are completely vanquished so they cannot rise again to challenge you. Leave no room for recovery, and ensure your dominance is unquestioned. The more decisively you eliminate threats, the less likely they are to pose a danger to you in the future.
