Do Not Mistake.

The fact that there are only a few of us at a meeting.

The fact that 99% of people affected by our decisions are not at the meeting.

The fact that none of us will disclose what was said at the meeting.

The fact that 97% of people affected by our meeting aren’t interested in our meeting.

The fact that we spent our career being excluded from these meetings until we were promoted to a position requiring attendance.

Do not mean that we have the right to say and decide things in the meeting that we would not say publicly.

Do not mistake the efficiency and work-in-progress reasons for closed doors as permission to be duplicitous.
