Chapter 16

Toward Individual and Group Wholeness

Draft (Please do not distribute)

Star Trek, here is a way of looking at that group, the old original guys, Captain Kirk was the intuitive, he could make decisions, amazing.  ThatÕs the kind of decisions he could make, because he was intuitive.  But he depended on his lieutenants.  The thinker, Mr. Spock, and the feeler, Dr. McCoy.  And they were always having snippets at each other, as you remember, because they were speaking different languages.  But old Scotty, nobody would be able to anything, unless old Scotty – was the nuts and bolts, he kept things functioning and together and repaired.

 

So all those guys worked beautifully as a group.  That was an example that this little company that I presented this to found really valuable.  So the people that werenÕt working together suddenly discovered they had these strengths, and they began to value them rather than to challenge them and say, ÒWhy arenÕt you like me?Ó  That was  great little metaphor.
