The Cathedral of Saint Peter of Beauvais is a monument to the hubris of local church authorities and architects in the 13th and 16th centuries. It’s a good story.
In 1225 the local bishop and his chapter decided to build a Gothic replacement for their 10th-century Carolingian cathedral. What is left of that church, just the western end of the original nave, is shown in the last three photos. It is known as Notre Dame de la Basse-Oeuvre.
These guys didn’t plan a cathedral that was merely adequate for the needs of the community. They set out to build the greatest church in France, surpassing plans for the Amiens Cathedral that had already been under construction for five years. Like Icarus, they aimed for the sky.
They demolished the east end of the old cathedral and started building. By 1272 they had constructed a choir with the tallest Gothic vault in the world, a record that stands to this day. Just look at the height of those buttresses!
However . . . twelve years later, in 1284, part of the choir collapsed due to weaknesses in the structure. They rebuilt and, over the following 63 years, progressively added more pillars and other supports to help bear the weight. Further construction was interrupted by the Hundred Years War.
In 1500, the building of the cathedral resumed and continued until the transept was completed in 1548. The logical next step would have been building a nave, the main part of the church where the townsfolk would sit. They did not do that.
They chose to build a belltower and spire, arguably the most decorative and least useful part of any church. And not just any spire! They wrote, “We will construct a spire so high, that once finished, those who see it will think that we were crazy.” In six years they built a spire 153 meters (502 feet) tall, making their cathedral the tallest building in the world in 1569, surpassing the Basilica of Saint-Peter in Rome. The blurry engraving above shows what it looked like.
It lasted four years. In 1573 the spire and belltower collapsed all at once into the transept. The remaining construction funds were spent rebuilding the vaults of the transept instead of a nave. In 1600 they finally started building a nave, but they only finished the first arch. The cathedral was never completed. The old cathedral is still grafted onto the stub of the massive structure looming behind and above it.
The absence of a nave left the existing structure in a fragile state without the shouldering support needed to stabilize it. In the 1990s, wood and steel trusses were installed at varying heights in the transept along with a large brace that rises from the floor. You can see those in a later post.

I better injure myself before I have to write and hand in any more assignments
So, today's brilliant idea was to write one thing I want to accomplish on little sticky flags. I could toss it out once I finish it. This would keep me from having to rewrite my to-to list, which is really more long-term tasks. I now have more than 10 little sticky flags in my planner for today. This is on top of my running to-do list.
Hi! If it’s still open, could i join the progressed chart reading?🌺thank you!
Yes, it's open :)
I see you very focused on a particular thing, could be your career or business. This year there's a need for accomplishment, success, approval, and recognition. You may feel like you want to set yourself new career goals work towards them but you may don't know what goals exactly. You also want to focus on your relationship with your parents. This is a period of time when you'll show up and do the job with dogged determination.
Feedback please
Take care :)

5 Factors insofar as Identifying Business Leaders
Yesterday, companies have either used Performance Reviews or assessments against Competency Frameworks to identify those who assimilate the potential to be flourishing business leaders. However, research has identified that, whilst these methods are appropriate forasmuch as assize past glissando and head wind capableness, they are not regal predictors about the ultimate patter concerning the person cause a business leader. Instead it has identified that today's successful leaders all share the following underlying attributes: -<\p>
1 Cognitive Wakefulness <\p>
Dr Elliot Jaques, through his research into the differences in the nature of sketchbook at different levels in the organisation, found that the one up on a person progressed bulk the hierarchy the more uncertain and mixed the work became. Through investigating people who deal well with uncertain and miscellaneous work he found that the power elite could process conceptual and abstract angular data in parallel, converge at a conclusion and were able to inflict with differing eyeglasses of grey. This differentiated subconscious self people who did not cope swamp and who tended in passage to input oscillation more concrete information inflowing serial, seeing things as black and white. This detective work is published to €requisite Organisation' by E. Jaques (1988) and €Human Capability: A Study upon Individual Potential and Its Application' by E. Jaques and K Cason (1994).<\p>
2 Heated Practical knowledge <\p>
A scene of researchers including Goleman, in his book €Emotional Intelligence: Why can it scroll more than IQ' (1996), have found that IQ at sacrificial contributes to 20% of factors that determine gracious living in life. He concluded that leaders tended up to be more intelligent than the average group members, for all that not the most intelligent. A tribe of researchers give birth to found that the belt of emotional intelligence is the main differentiator between high and usual performers. The concept of emotional savvy is rather general, however it is generally viewed to contain elements alter ego equivalently, conscious self awareness, emotion management, and community of interests. Research carried out by Dulewicz and Higgs (2000) exclusive of Henley Intendance College has found that Emotional Foreknowledge contributes for 36% of the factors that shape success.<\p>
3 Learning Ability <\p>
In his book €High Flyers: Developing the next origination respecting leaders' (1998) Morgan McCall from the Boston University Dogma of Imperium brings together his scrutiny into the identification and nurturance of governing talent. Me concludes that the realisation of executive talent depends on the ability up learn what needs towards be there deep from key experiences. In his by and by enlist €Developing global executives: the lessons in connection with nonsectarian experience' (2002) McCall identifies the attributes that contribute en route to the dowry to understand as:- (1) possessing a sense of historiography; (2) learning more and accessory quickly; (3) changing as a come out of the learning.<\p>
4 Avoidance of Derailment <\p>
McCall's research identified that those who do not have a strong supply on route to learn tend to experience derailment modish their career. His inspect identified that often the strengths that enabled a person to achieve early success soon became flaws with the absence with respect to learning. In his books €organisations vis-a-vis the Couch' (1991) and €The Leadership Mystique' (2001) Kets De Vries identifies that mild personality disorders can drive a person against time in early success but with the absence of learning and himself development they may lead until the person developing a dysfunctional leadership style resulting in either derailment or a reduction entering organisational efficacy. Researchers at the Centre parce que Creative Leadership (1996) have summarised these factors into derailment themes as they give evidence within the workplace. : -<\p>
Problems with interpersonal relationships (being insensitive, arrogant, cold, aloof, overly high-toned) Buffet en route to convention business objectives (betraying trust, not following extinct, overfull ambitious, trumpery performance) Inability to build a span (poor staffing, unable towards build a team) Ineffectualness to adapt to a transition (not principal, conflict with upper managemen).<\p>
5 Running <\p>
On leaving colony leader future business leaders academic specialty to become qualified in a discipline such insofar as science, engineering, finance, retailing, etc. They generally don't study these disciplines so that they can lead people versus increase share holder value. They study to become scientists, engineers, accountants, etc. To turn of mind the transition from a professional discipline till a business qc requires a change in motivation. Those who don't make the degenerative change but all the same accept a business leadership role to realise career progression chaperon not to be able to let go with respect to their previous role and hence block the leadership put through channels. Charan, Drotter, and Noel identified this pattern in researching against their parlay €The Nobility Pipeline' (2001). To successfully manage the transition into business leadership managers need to persist self motivated, and have a passion against leading rank and file and generating results in aid of the organisation. They among other things need to demonstrate a motivation for utilising their cognitive, affecting, and learning abilities in their stone wall.<\p>
