Replying to LO24000 --
Hi Andrew, Jan and All,
It pleases me to find such a subject as JOI DE VIVRE after a long break i
had to take from reading this list. Right you are both - there is
certainly a great lack of joy in the workingplaces (what do you think
about this terminology, Jan?). i also agree that in a large scale,
'leaving part of oneself out of the workingplace' is the main cause of
this situation.
What i suggest is to look for fuzzy solutions - to give up the old
believes that emotions should be avoided, neglected or supressed and at
the same time to create motivation to produce. Paradise, isn't it?
Practically it is - to prioritize the emotional well-being of the people
in the workingplace (including clients and outsources). There is lot to
be done in this direction,
shalom,
Judy Tal
