Being is the essence out of which all things evolve. This blog is an ongoing conversation of being in various facets and areas of life, including the personal and the professional from which relationships of all kinds are formed and teams built in all communities, virtual or real, at home, at work, in politics and at play.

Being the Vatican
The Times Online UK reports that the Vatican will "claim bishops are not 'employees.'" If this is so, the Catholic Church is acting like the big immoral corporation that many assume it is. This is shameful!

Judith,
Now this is just sad! Talk about bankrupting the credibility account. I understand the financial reasons for this lame attempt to escape accountability but how does one justify the obvious disconnect between what you preach and what you practice?
The Catholic Church is the best argument I know against top down authoritarian management. You could turn this into a simple formula... HIERARCHY + AUTOCRACY + BUREAUCRACY + SECRECY + BELIEF IN ONE'S INFALLIBILITY = CUSTOMER & EMPLOYEE ABUSE + COVER-UP.

True that, Dave!

Bravo, John! Simple enough formula indeed.
