transparency II

So, your team member's question--whether using organizationally branded material was a good idea--also resonates for me, and resonates, too, w/ my questions below about the possibility (and now: the advisability!) of transparency. mightn't it be more politic NOT to lead w/ what you know will be offensive, will turn some representatives off before you ever get to speak to them, because they "think they know" what it is you have to tell them. I see this less as a question of balancing individual convictions against organizational needs, or individual flexibility against organizational methods, than a (simple?) question of politics: how best to get the outcome you want? And transparency very well may not (?) be the way...
