Corporate Theatre - An Insight

HAPPY ONAM!!!!!!!!!

We ( Myself and Sekharji) are indebted to our mentor Shri. Paul Mathew in this regard. The comments below were mailed to me and sekhar to be shared with the recipients of CT Workshop..


* One of the comments of Mechanical Workshop said , "I is a bad feeling. We is a feeling of joy, happiness . . " - When a comment like this we always applaud the person for the sharing, and thank them. Facilitators Reaffirm that what they have stated is valid. At the same time, we gently sensitise them to the fact that 'We', 'society', 'community' are only concepts. The reality that you can touch, feel, and work with is only the individual. This being so, the Individual is not 'bad'. A good team or a good community is made of up of individuals positively aligned to a common cause. Similarly, in a typical corporate environment we do not expect people to 'surrender'. That would be unrealistic in an environment where every individual legitimately seeks to become a CEO. Rather, it is more to do with ALIGNING individual egos to the team ego in a way that the individual can win only if the team wins. This is the challenge of top leadership and the policy makers. Once you have done this, there is no need to MAKE people work. They will WANT to work. And that is real motivational leadership.

* Another comment said, "I used to be an introvert . . ". Facilitators always Encourage the sharer to drop all labeling. We Make them aware that within the personality cage we are 'products'. Once we drop it, we are 'processes'. As a product, labels apply. As a process, yesterday I may have felt introverted. Today I have the freedom to experience myself differently and respond differently. I am in a state of constant flow, adaptation and response. Labels don't apply.
