In a recent post referring to the participation rates on L-O, I was trying
to make the point that participation does not come naturally in groups. I
was using L-O as an example that we can all relate to.
As change agents, we need to be cognizant of the fact that people will not
naturally come forward to oppose change. Often they work behind the
scenes to sabbotage a change effort, sometimes subconsciously!
My cryptic remarks regarding participation rates and the 75% "lurkers" on
L-O offended some L-O followers. My intention was not to pick on L-O
lurkers, and I apologize for this. My cryptic typing style tends to leave
out the necessary details when it would be better to elaborate as in this
case.
Sincerely...Keith
