Speedbird, very well said. I have been mulling over this for the last 48 hours. Its important for everyone to relax, take a deep breath and have good solid dialog within the company, without jumping to conclusions about intentions or futures. I've worked in environments where the partial story is taken as the full story and dander flies without solid discussion, chest beating replaces mature thinking and nobody wins. Not good.SpeedBird said:To put in pilot terms we can all appreciate; let's just hack the clock and smoke our figurative pipes now that the master-caution light has illuminated....cause the "airplane" isn't gonna fall out of the sky in the next five minutes.
Having said this, I do think it is important to ask the hard questions and listen to the answers. So far, this process is still too much in its infancy to go off the deep end with wild reactions. Lets discuss this internally like the professionals that we are. David and Dave get out in the field far more than most leaders, so it is easy to have these discussions openly.
