3. Seeking Participation and Involvement
   The Right Way
   Barb:
   So how much computer equipment is missing?
   Joan:
   About $6,000 worth. Two units and a hard disk.
   Barb:
   Any ideas about how it happened?
   Joan:
   None. Except I know it wasn’t anyone on the team. Ever
   since you gave us the key to the equipment room, each of
   us has taken turns with hourly inventory.
   Barb:
   What does security say about it?
   Joan:
   That it was probably an inside job. But I still say that it
   wasn’t one of the team, Barb. No one would betray the
   trust the company gave us by giving us access to that room.
   Barb:
   I believe that, too. I certainly have no reason to
   think otherwise.
   Joan:
   But you probably want the key back, right?
   Barb:
   No. I want your team to work out a system with security
   that makes it impossible for someone to get out of here
   with $6,000 worth of equipment. And one more thing.
