ABSTRACT
The leader’s strength can alter to the flexibility of following and vice versa. The dynamics between strength and flexibility are borne out of customization that occurs from the tensegretic response. In the journey of exploration through tensegrity, considerations of structure arise, specifically how strength and flexibility work together in a structure. Social structure from this perspective is glued to strength and security. Delving further into tensegrity reveals it as an organic structuring principle occurring on the macro and micro levels from which an important find comes to light. Strength yields security and stability. Strength is a desired social outcome of buildings and other social structures as well as the physical body. Flexibility, on the other hand, tends to be regarded as a weakness socially because it indicates a wavering or bending in a structure. In flexibility, strength disappears.
