<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Tahoma>Greetings. Just a thought. Yes, things went
seriously wrong, yes, there is a case to go to the ombudsman, but should
we not spend as much energy on solving a problem then on condemning it?. I was
thinking in the last days: “why did staff do that?”, and I have come to the
conclusion that they simply did not know better. They need help and they need it
in a way they can relate to, understand and use in the day to day process. Yes,
they should have consulted, but are there the open channels to do so? The
questions for me is, do we have the lines of communications and the trust
between those involved to have constructive and effective communication between
staff and constituencies? I guess not. Are we non communicating communicators?
Pointing fingers at this moment does not get us further and anywhere, searching
for ways to avoid similar situations in the future does! Would it not be
worthwhile to spend a lot of effort of trying to get the lines of communication
open again? </FONT></DIV>
