The same companies that "tie up" their staff and don't allow them to be innovative and creative are the same ones that struggle to be successful. I work with managers and leaders like this every day. They come for coaching wanting to know how to motivate their staff to bring their hearts and minds to their organization. They don't actually want to set free their employee's hearts and minds - that's too frightening!!! They want to motivate their employees to do what they want them to do, the way they want it done. How disempowering is that? They do not recognize that the company culture is one of fear, cautiousness and "take no risks" so, of course, people aren't going to bring their hearts and minds there. They will only bring their bodies. Yet the creative and innovative spirit that sets organizations apart from the rest resides in the hearts and minds of people. An enormous amount of work has to be done with these CEOs and managers to change their mindset. Thanks for those reflective words.

I work in highly regulated industries so it is my business to know and understand regulatory trajectories so 'that won't be allowed' kind of objections can be meaningfully handled. Interesting point though, worth a ponder. Thanks.
