<p class=MsoNormal><font size=2 face=Arial><span lang=EN-GB style='font-size:
10.0pt;font-family:Arial'>Speaking of fear: I happen to prepare for an
OST-meeting, in which the participants want to find the new strategy of a small
graphics and printing company, which also offers workspaces for handicapped
people. The head of the company took part in an OST-meeting in November and decided
to use the same approach for his strategic planning task, thus involving all his
main employees (and some of the handicapped people as well). They created a
great invitation which states, amongst other things, that people will think,
discuss and act on that day as if the company was theirs. The theme is “Impulse
2013”, the goal is to find out what needs to happen until then to secure
the company’s well-being economically and socially.<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>

are fearful about what’s coming up and creating alliances to prevent
change. Some of them cling to their machines and don’t want them to
become outdated, which however is inevitable (no more spare parts available etc.).<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>

situation? The meeting will be on March 27<sup>th</sup>. (He loves sayings and
keeps publishing them inside the company. I have asked if he knows one about
fear. The one from A Course in Miracles is a bit too far out for his people –
so I asked if perhaps it would be enough to post a question on the bulletin
board stating “What is fear?”)<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>
