What a brilliant post.  You have touched on some very important aspects concepts that I admire!

Letting go of previous boundaries, transforming competition into compassion and cooperation, and supporting the unlimited growth and change of the individual may be some of the greatest challenges that face the business world.

New attitude. Promise of change is not enough. We must take the actions to create the change and learn from each other how to make our world a better place.

There is a paradigm shift in our culture.

Are we ready to embracing it or not?

Are we ready within our organizations to promote integrity, creativity, trust and cooperation.
Are we ready to reduce the bureaucracy within large organizations - beyond the concept of "trust is good control is better?"
Are we ready to promote values that foster life balance support?
Are we ready to to accept that we are spiritual beings and the more we deny that the harder we fail?
Are we ready to understand that this process is never ending?
Are we ready to be ultimately responsible for ourselves?
Are we ready to lead from within - so it can shape ourselves and our life.

As you can see John, your post has brought out some deeper questioning and thoughtful exploration.
Thanks for sharing.
