----------------------------Original message----------------------------
Roland  I agree  that fear does not work.

My dilemma is that it exists and that managers believe that it should.

How do you drive out fear in organizations that want to have fear ?

Fritz Perls said that real change can only come through catastrophe.

Possibly these organizations need to failure and rebirth as places
without fear.
