I feel a Global Governing Body might become necessary if the earth is to survive rogue nations and address things such as a changing environment, economic inequality, world population explosion, national border issues, and even the threat of future pandemics. These challenges are as complex as they are widespread and yet affect us all.
Here are my ideas regarding a difficult question: Who would be qualified to serve on a “World Governance Body?” Consider the following as a “brainstorming” session with myself.
One of the necessary attributes is the quality of their relationships with their key people and others. This should be evaluated over at least 25 years of working with others as a leader. Over time, They would have created several Inner Circles, building them to the point that the people who make up their present Inner Circle can effectively problem-solve and lead as required. In other words, a highly effective group of individuals who can work together as one body.
Financial success is not a qualification that should be considered. I think a candidate’s attitude and behavior towards people are paramount. Are they noteworthy leaders adept at nurturing and growing others? Do they earnestly seek growth and are willing and able to provide the necessary environment for this to happen? Their history provides the answers.
I believe that the selection of those who would serve be from among the few leaders that have, for at least 25 years, given themselves to people and not to financial accumulation. While both achievements are possible, I’m not sure they’re compatible. While many of the world’s population might feel that those who are immensely successful, powerful, or charismatic are the most attractive candidates for a position in a world government, the best qualification must be years upon years of growing and caring for people. Financial success must have no hand in this.
