Comment on Deviants Rule the World? by Andrew Davidson

Tom,
Your article is spot on and very timely. The rules and bureaucracy that we have to live with as a result of “we know best” politicians are frustrating ,inefficient, ineefective and leave one to ponder why bother at all. I have just returned from a sporting event wherby I represented NZ in the Triathlon World Championships.I decided to freight my bike back to avoid taking it around Europe while on vacation.Triathlon NZ provided me with a letter to say i would be doing this and that the bike was legitimately taken out of NZ for the event. On return my bike was held up in customs. They did not believe me, they wanted receipt of purchase and a letter from the shop that i purchased the bike from otherwise they would apply duty.Lots of innocent people involved .I suppose when we live in a country that is so rich and doesn’t have any real issues to focus on this type of activity keeps the bureaucrats occupied.I guess we get the Leaders we deserve.

I liked the concept of everyone being on the team and working in a cooperative way to achieve shared goals. However,this is a long way from what happens in most organisations and I look forward to reading about how you believe that your ideas can be successfully implemented

I agree with your thoughts and think that this way of working would benefit individuals and organisations. Look forward to more thoughts from you.
