Welcome to the Wakefield Doctrine (the theory of clarks, scotts and rogers)

ok, ok, we did promise to discuss, ever-so briefly, the concept of serendipitous insights into the personal realities inherent in the three personality types of the Wakefield Doctrine.

this will not be on the Final Exam for one very good reason.

…

if you haven’t found this thing of ours fascinating, fun, weird-but-you-know-kinda-true. and possibly even useful, you are no longer reading…

(lol. jokes on them. well, technically, the joke (or the necessary premise of said bon mot), does not exit for them what clicked away five minutes ago*)

New Readers!! Following is our statement of role:

Your Narrator, being a clark with a significant secondary scottian and weak tertiary rogerian aspect, is the Curator of these pages. That is the extent of it. The reason for this seemingly clumsy exhibition of humility is to be found in the ‘Eureka Moment’ of the Wakefield Doctrine. (Hint: found in the ‘About’ or one of the other Pages (as opposed to Posts).

The Eureka Moment is Number One!! on our ‘List of greatest insights into another’s personal reality’.

(Quick Note: sure, the Doctrine will, in the course of describing the characteristics of the three personality types, enable anyone to see examples (of them) in their own worlds. But, beyond that. there have been occasions when we simply get lucky, spot a situation and correctly infer what a person of a different predominant worldview  is experiencing as they are experiencing it. In other words, see further into their world than even the principles of the  Doctrine ordinarily permit.)

anyway… in no particular order**

• ‘Referential Authority’ in the world of the Herd Member, the ultimate exertion of will on their surroundings always involves referring to a commonly-held belief system/coda example: HR person says to new hire: “This folder contains the SOP of our operation, we call it ‘the Bible'”¹ Any religious leader-wannabe will always speak of higher authorities on… shall we say, ‘as a personal friend, confidant’
• ‘Lashing-Out’ again in the world of the Herd Member, this is an extremely effective (and efficacious) strategy to exert dominance in a Herd. It (the identification of and definition of this mechanism/tactic), is also the greatest gift the Wakefield Doctrine makes available to clarks. (Hint: It eliminates the damage of the reflexive thought “What could I have done to make my rogerian friend say such a thing?”)

ok,  out of time

Don’t forget!

The Wakefield Doctrine is for you, not them.

*no, we wouldn’t be making fun of the creatively challenged. no way

** we did identify ourslefs as a clark, did we not? lol

1. you clarks out there know that no one, with the exception of the referenced HR person ever calls it that
