Caturday is off to a strong start.

Report finds that water is wet. On the other hand, snow is cold.

Screenshot of an Inside Higher Ed story with the following headline: Right-Leaning Faculty Likelier to Be 'Hostile' to Jews, Report Finds.

Re-reading some literature from my Toxic Leadership course and came upon this beauty of a diagram from The toxic triangle: Destructive leaders, susceptible followers, and conducive environments Art Padilla, Robert Hogan, & Robert B. Kaiser.

The toxic triangle: elements in three domains related to destructive leadership. Destructive leaders: charisma, personalized power, narcissism, negative life themes & ideology of hate. Susceptible Followers: Conformers - unmet needs, low core self-evaluations & low maturity & Colluders - ambition, similar world view & bad values. Conducive Environments: Instability, perceived threat, cultural values, and lack of checks & balances and ineffective institutions. From Padilla et al., The Leadership Quarterly 18 (2007) 176-194.
