Do you work in an environment that fosters creativity, self-direction and risk-taking, or is your workplace a group in which workers avoid accountability out of concern for consequences that may arise from a person's initiative, or a mistake? Do you trust your bosses and coworkers? Do you feel safe and happy at work, or are you resentful of your boss's authority or management style? Now take a moment to critique your parenting style. Are you a parent that teaches by example and fosters personal responsibility and accountability, or are you the authoritarian that expects nothing but obedience?
