THE PATHFINDER + THE CAMPFIRE LEADER

The Star and the Fire

One points the way. The other brings everyone along.

Where you’re strong together

The Pathfinder knows where the mob needs to go; the Campfire Leader knows how to move a mob without anyone left behind. Together you get direction people actually want to follow — rare, and worth a lot.

Where you’ll grind

The Pathfinder wants to go now; the Campfire Leader wants to check everyone's ready. To a Pathfinder that can look like dragging the chain. To a Campfire Leader, the Pathfinder can look like they don't care who falls behind.

WHAT THE PATHFINDER NEEDS FROM THE CAMPFIRE LEADER

Tell me who I'm losing. You'll see it before I do.

WHAT THE CAMPFIRE LEADER NEEDS FROM THE PATHFINDER

Give me time to bring people with us — and back me when I say someone isn't ready yet.

ONE CONVERSATION WORTH HAVING

When I'm pushing ahead, how can you tell I've stopped bringing people with me?
