Originality and envy arise with humanbecoming and leading-following situations. Originality in leadership is significant because there is always pushing-resisting to cocreate something new and carve-out paths that differ from what already is. Envy and originality are lived out in unique patterns by all persons, in some way. How these patterns are lived depends on the choices persons make about how they live their unique originality among infinite possibilities. In this exploration, the author utilized ideas about originality and envy from existentialist psychologist and formative spiritualist, Adrian van Kaam, and nurse theorist, Rosemarie Rizzo Parse.
