An educational software company I once worked for used to promote a Leadership Framework that was illustrated using an Escher-like ring of adjoining geometric shapes. The center of the ring lists the four core values of a good leader; around them in dark blue are displayed attributes of good leadership; and around those in light blue are their "non-leadership" equivalents. When I saw this I immediately was reminded of the book "M.C. Escher Kaleidocycles" by Doris Schattschneider and Wallace Walker, which takes Escher's beautiful repeating images and turns them into 3-dimensional rotating paper sculptures. I created an origami version of the Leadership Framework that flexes completely around. It's made from a strip of paper printed on one side. For the class, I will provide trimmed Leadership Framework paper strips, ready for folding. Tape will be provided to complete the assembly.
