David Gurteen's comments: Several people have misinterpreted this statement. Jo is saying that these human "failings" get in the way of being impactful not that they are necessary to achieve things! She passed the statement to me on a piece of paper while we were sitting in a conference listening to an articulate "suit" with a deck of "corporate slides" fend off questions from the audience.

KM initiatives should be designed to disrupt current established: belief systems; unexamined assumptions; hypocrisies and entrenched thinking in order to create deep change in people/organizational systems.
