Behind the Craft

NOTE

Embrace the First Follower Mentality

The impact of a 'first follower' is crucial in catalyzing participation and belief in new ideas or movements. When an individual takes the initiative to engage in an unconventional act, they may initially attract skepticism, but the addition of a second person can create a pivotal moment that transforms the dynamic, potentially leading to a larger movement. This illustrates that the creation of something meaningful is not solely the responsibility of the first person but also relies heavily on those who choose to support and engage with that initial idea. For optimal team dynamics, it is essential to have early members, such as engineers and designers, who possess this first follower mentality, motivated by genuine belief rather than obligation.
