Things Are All Better Now…Really?

by Beav on June 10, 2010

I just signed up for the daily comic strip at Dilbert.com.  My dad got me into it and now I’m hooked up for daily laughs.But usually there’s sad truth behind some of what is so funny and here’s a good example:Dilbert.comIt’s truly a sad thing when people/leaders find comfort or even self-validation just because they got rid of the people who see what’s wrong or maybe even see through them as leaders.

    This is funny, but the underlying truth is so sad, like you said. It's something we experienced, and this unfortunately sums it up.

      Sorry that you have had to go through that. Nothing totally alleviates some of that pain, but I've been encouraged in those times where I've experienced or where I've watched others go through it that usually it leads to great opportunities. I've seen the "Joseph" dynamic many times where people with the power, while not necessarily intending evil do have intentions to create environments suited to their own wills and opinions. The scapegoated individual or people then often gets forced out one way or another only to find a greater opportunity to contribute and serve out of their gifts and passions. It can be quite a journey from point A to point B here, but seeing this pattern gives me hope given how often I see leaders alienate those that provide different thoughts, values, and ideas.Thanks for weighing in here!
