What happens when the heart is not connected to goals...

What happens when there is no passion, no emotional connection to the goals or work, no internal enthusiasm or commitment inside the organization?

The result is a profound dis-empowerment of the people.

What symptoms would you expect to see in this type of business or organization? Here is what I have seen in the different companies I have consulted with:

*their culture is one of depression...people are in a funk
*boredom, they start counting the days to retirement
*anger
*fear
*apathy

Neglect the "heart of the organization" and you will have no shared vision or values, misalignment and dis-empowerment. No one really wants to work in this type of organization, but they usually stay because they get a pay check. This type of organization usually has a negative cash flow, low quality, bloated costs, inflexibility, slowness, no energy, lots of finger pointing. No one is willing to take responsibility...
