Thanks John for posting this. It's food for thought for me. I was
inspired by this to ask to be included in a series of meetings with
the users of my procedures, instead of grumbling to myself about
not being included. Not the same thing as doing folks a favor, but
a step in the right direction to get myself more involved in the
business. And as soon as I asked, I was included - no big deal
actually.
The scary thing is that for X amount of time, they were probably
wondering why you DIDN'T ask to be included. "What is she...too good
for us?" :-)
There's a pattern here, John. I'm already working on
* Client Education - establishing the client's role in the process

But you're on a little different, more inclusive tack, maybe "Define Roles"?
