I  commend you for your very balanced e mail on unions and how to develop 
collaborative initiatives. I Just sent an e mail to Tim Mitchell before 
reading your text. You stated so clearly what I was also getting at.  Your 
last couple of paragraphs were exactly the strategies I adopted in my 
company to help keep it union free.

Those were early employee involvment, creating a sense of partnership and 
work hard to develop a climate where management would be trusted. An awful 
lot of this can accomplished just trough listening. It is unfortunate that 
more of our our young managers do not learn those skills while in school. I 
note you are at Michigan State. I am an Ohioan and spent a couple of 
semesters at Ohio State. At the end of Saturday, We both had a lot to cry 
about.
