Thank you for your comment, Mark! What you describe is what I hear about work teams around the globe - it's normal.

What is also normal is an exclusive focus on results - which can open the door to people behaving badly to get those results. That's a problem.

My experience is that being intentional about purpose and values - personally and for one's team - evolves relationships beyond "cogs in a wheel"! Work can be a place of significance AND performance.

Thanks for letting my thoughts stir yours a bit!

Cheers!
