He might not be in charge of the Public Safety or Public Relations divisions of Piron, but he certainly isn’t ignorant to the fact that some degree of cover up needed to be performed after some ill side effects of human test subjects. Warning Sign #2: Alec is resorting to menial, elementary pleas for leniency. To deliver, Alec must at least match what he demonstrated in the meeting of Piron’s Board of Important People, but that also means laying on the pressure to his science team and continually pressing for more. But then his leadership style encourages those around him to do the same after faking the potential of Halo’s capabilities. Alec wants it to work and goes to extreme measures in order to reverse engineer a solution to the product’s primary problem. Warning Sign #1: The desperation to legitimize Halo has a trickle down effect. If Halo fails and he drives Piron into the ground, he will be a laughingstock and will find it difficult, if not impossible, to recover the ground he lost that will turn him into the Alec Sadler Kiera knew in the future.īased on the allusions made to the future from whence Brad Tonkin hails, this might be exactly the road Alec is barreling down. Alec is in the midst of a game-changing innovation and if he fails, or if he introduces the future faster than it is ready to arrive, then he is going to stall. I’ve encountered clients, professionally, where the need to go farther faster overrules direction-driven purpose and as they barrel toward the finish line they realize that even though they’ve come to the end, they don’t have much with which to move forward. ![]() One of my questions over the last couple weeks has been about Alec and why he’s motivated to go in the direction he’s going. What you will find within are some predictions about what’s coming for the young, ambitious Alec, how Kellogg being a Big Deal in the future might effect the mission Brad was sent back with, the irony of Liber8’s eyes being opened to the truth and now becoming pawns in someone else’s game, and then finally the mysterious text message Dillon receives from Julian. There was a lot to pick apart in this episode and I was so please to find some clarity come just by virtue of writing this blog. I’m done with the philosophical analyses for now, at least in terms of the in-depth extent of the last two posts. ![]()
