A few questions


Among those you work with

1. What’s the quality of relationships? Trust, criticism,
   judgment?
2. How much learning from experience occurs?
3. When something goes wrong, how do people respond?
4. If you continue in this way for another year, will your
   working relationships be healthier or not?
