Conducting

Been thinking about this word ‘conductor’ and others related to it.

There’s the music conductor.

Then the electrical conductor.

A conduit.

And conducive, which apparently originated from conducting in English and conducere in Latin. Thanks Google.

I like this idea of a body or medium which is conducive to energy flowing through it, from one end to another.

The energy transfer culminates in movement if it’s converted to kinetic energy.

Fascinating to think about a musical conductor in this way, creating movement in the members of their orchestra as they play instruments and perform music.

As leaders, we’re kind of like that musical conductor.

So what energy flows through us?

What is it’s source?

And what collective movement (noise) do we seek to make in the members of our orchestra?

Next up…. how does this relate to conductivity?
