Live to Lead

I enjoyed watching this series. The interviews are well done and personal, giving a better view of the people being interviewed.

The stories presented are meant to inspire and they do. They are meant to remind us that human are capable of great things, things that connect us to each other and make the world better.

I know some people wont watch because of the producers and that is unfortunate. The people highlighted are worth a watch and a listen. I highly recommend this for anyone in need of a little positivity and inspiration in a world that seems lacking of both most of the time. Give it a chance!

How does it matter who produced the series or who speaks the introduction? That is less than 2 minutes of each documentary in the series. Take home the message instead and concentrate on what these leaders are really saying. If people do not like the series it is more because they are uncomfortable with the message these leaders want to convey rather than the fact that Harry and Meghan are part of the production team.

I have already seen the first two documentaries and am mid-way through the third one in the series. Once the focus is on the person who is speaking, there is no mention at all of the producers. So, take home the message. That's what will benefit each one of us.

There are truly remarkable interviewees in this series who deserve well-researched individual documentaries each. However, the target audience for this must be the 15 - 18 year old demographic or those with short attention spans who would never sit through something like that. Many if not all of the interviews were taped 3 years ago and well before Harry and Megan had anything to do with this project from the Mandela Foundation. Shame on Netflix for trying to pass this off as being engineered by the Sussexes, it takes away from the credibility and makes the Mandela Foundation feel absolutely used for the fame gain of the Sussexes who did very little work on this. The first the Prime Minister of New Zealand new of their involvement was when she saw the trailer. I wonder how many of them would have wanted to be involved if they knew up front...

I was truly disappointed with this series, the people highlighted are extraordinary in their fields; yet, I couldn't help but feel that their stories where butchered. I believe that it was expected to actually know the biography of all those involved, in order to feel connected; their live stories felt incomplete, and in spite of their extraordinay experiences some episodes ended up being boring; which really impacted me, how could someone belittle these people's lives to the point of boredom? When they are everything BUT boring, so disappointed.

Also, don't understand the need to include Meghan Markle and Prince Harry in each episode, in my view, it diminished the quality of the show; and for the first time in my life, the constant mention of Nelson Mandela made me cringe to a point. I would have respected them more, if they would have given the light to their guests, if they would have taken more time to create their stories with the impact that they possess; the constant need to try to remind everyone that they're "trying" to do good, only reinforces their constant need for attention and validation.

If there's going to be a secon season, I truly hope that the respect that their possible guests deserve, comes through... Handing the torch to those who actually have a message to deliver. Even though, I don't think a second season with this same team is needed.

I've watched and been in Live to Lead conferences hosted by a great leader, coach and mentor, John Maxwell. You can meet real life-changing leaders offering their humbleness in greatness and their hard walk to get where they are. Real people. Its a true representation of the varied leadership styles, objectively presented, inspiring for all kinds of people and the leader in you. It focuses on leadership and not leftists nor right-wing propagandas. I encourage you to search John Maxwell if you are looking for inspiration in 2023.

But this, short of a docuseries, short of inspirational, is a well-edited, music-enriched global leftist propaganda of what the elitist crowd wants you to think is good. Its nothing about leadership, but everything on gaslighting and opportunism. Only high ratings comes from leftist trying to boost the series. In any case, it reveals the benefits of aligning thoughts with the right, powerful, elitist crowd. Full of ironies that almost seems like they are laughing at our faces. How can a child enviromentalist that hides behind autism to demand pity, endorse two world-class spenders of fossil fuels. Those elitists she loves and admire. The hypocrisy! How can a governor, President of her country, endorse two royal brats who has not experience what the poor endures and dares talk about poverty. Feels so fake and hypocritical. I can go on, but the show is to promote the World Economic Forum ideas and scares. I recommend visiting their webpage.
