Reminds me of requirement we had in a
successful real estate partnership that I was once a core member of. Egos
had to be hung on the hat rack before entering the room in which the
partners were going to meet. If one snuck in, we had a protocol of
excusing that partner to go outside and "hang his ego on the hat rack".
Sometimes, it took a while for them to be ready to come back in. Perhaps
difficulty in finding the hat rack.We continued with our meeting and the
partner "suffered" the consequences of any votes we took to proceed in one
direction or another in his "ego" absence. It worked amazingly well and was
great training for each of us. Over time there were less and less visits
during the meeting to hang our egos on the hat rack.
