Well, while I may not know the
import of his pun, here's what I think, and I sketch:
The Managing Director is one who
knows that the best and less expensive form of "capacity building"
within an organisation is doing away with wedge issues and creating a
supportive workforce, one who values truth even when uncomfortable, one who
appreciates feedback, positive or otherwise, and encourages open exchange of
information, so that members of staff may know a bit about each other's and
therefore, versatility.
The Damaging Director on the
other hand makes this difficult to accomplish, dispenses information on the
pretext of it being a 'need to know,' but deep down, it's for the sole purpose
of alienating those who refuse to be slavish, you know, under the guise of
secrecy, when insecurity is what it usually is.
A Damaging Director would rather
'divide and rule' than 'unite and lead," and that's why they fail woefully
to apathy, to a working environment where workers will come to work yes, but
keep their heads down and do the bare minimum, you know, what the Mandinkas
call 'dankong dorong' or 'yamarri sindo', just for the pay cheque at the end of
the month.
