How in the world am I to do this, when no manager nor leader in my org leads by example?



Do this in the areas you control. If that's just your own output, that's OK. Maybe later you can expand it.


Indeed, good suggestion.

The tension is with standing out, culturally and otherwise. If what you do is outside the norm, you are “different” and “difficult to work with”.

But yea, doing the right thing is more important!
