It's Time to Change Channels

Are you tuned in to the WIIFM channel? What's in it for me? It looks like most Americans are viewing this channel. As such, ideology and partianship trump what's best for our country. Self-interests trump what is best for our communities and organizations. In fact competence and experience aren't considered premium qualities anymore. It appears our selfish interests are also fostering more polarized places. Additionally, if you are not like me or support my interest, then something is wrong with you. This lack of appreciation for differences stifles innovation and creativity and results in some people feeling they don't measure up. If we are to "be our B.E.S.T." the time is now for us all to switch channels. Get off the WIIFM channel and start focusing on what's B.E.S.T. for US!
