Kevin Kelly has been thinking about technology, civilisation and what it means to remain human inside complex systems for longer than most. His writing moves between the very long view and the very practical. If Wild Leadership is about what survives the machine model, Kelly is asking the same question from a different angle.
Margaret Heffernan writes about how organisations actually think — and why they so often don't. Her work on wilful blindness, uncertainty and the courage required to lead honestly is the most grounded thinking in this space. A serious voice on what real authority looks like.
The divided brain thesis — that left-hemisphere dominance is quietly unmaking the richness of human experience — is the deepest intellectual foundation for everything Wild Leadership argues. McGilchrist is posting irregularly but when he does it matters. Essential reading.
