poor leadership modeled in exodus

Dan Phillips posts How to be a Pathetic Leader at Pyromaniacs - definitely worth a read. Using Aaron in Exodus 32 as a model, Phillips finds 5 key points for failure.

1. Give the people what they want, regardless (vv. 2ff)
2. Give yourself "cover" (v. 4)
3. Par-tay (v. 5)
4. When it goes bad, blame everyone and everything but yourself (vv. 22-24)
5. Overall, give a selective narrative (v. 24)
