Forgive me... I want to translate this double negative...
I'd argue that at every FRC event, being a captain is always big deal to the average team.
I think I got that logic right... if not let me know.
I don't disagree with you
But I gotta ask... why is it such a big deal? I don't get it. Is it bragging rights? Is it the hunger for power? Why is being in control such a big deal? doesn't anyone out there feel that a leadership role can be more of a facilitator role where more emphasis is ensuring that everyone has a say and then it really becomes a team effort? Anyone believe the teaching that a good follower has the ability to become a great leader?
I just don't understand... I personally feel we don't have to prove anything to anyone (especially once we overcome our own insecurities)... we just achieve excellence and people will see it... that to me is more attractive than someone who brags with blue banners. But what do I know? I guess some people need bling bling to impress others... all I care about is what is on the inside... the actual substance that makes us tick... oh well... it's all good, we are all different... makes the world more interesting.
