Start with Why Using These Leadership Styles Advertisements.What Implementing The Golden Circle Looks Like.Introduction to Simon Sinek’s Golden Circle. As Judith Butler writes in her 1988 essay, “Performative Acts and Gender Constitution”: “Performing one’s gender wrong initiates a set of punishments both obvious and indirect, and performing it well provides the reassurance that there is an essentialism of gender identity after all.” This tension-the idea that there is a right way to be a woman, a right way to be the most essential woman-is ongoing and pervasive. I feel like I am not as committed as I need to be, that I am not living up to feminist ideals because of who and how I choose to be. My favorite definition of a feminist is one offered by Su, an Australian woman who, when interviewed for Kathy Bail’s 1996 anthology DIY Feminism, described them simply as “women who don’t want to be treated like shit.” This definition is pointed and succinct, but I run into trouble when I try to expand it. Then my son Dennis, a multi-talented guy who has generously offered to make this Website for me, reminded me that people have a choice, to read or not to. That may be in part because I keep hearing the words: "nobody reads anymore". Initially I was concerned regarding what the length of this writing could become. That may come later with the visual presentation of the work. I think words are no substitute for images, but I realize it can be interesting to hear a painter's 'story' of the image they have created. Although tempting, I will not be discussing here the works done over the decades. What follows is auto biographical, but only in relation to those things that have some connection with my work.
