Thanks for the great comment Seth.  Transparency jumped out at me from the pages of the book, like the idea of shared leadership.  Transparency helps build trust and trust lubricates relationships and organizations (and communities).  I think it's always been important but the Internet has made it much more urgent since the world can know something faster NOW than ever before.  Waiting for something to get out is the same as trying to hide it.  Neither helps very much.  Thanks again.  Mike...
