Struggling to maintain control

As any IT Director knows, maintaining control over your domain gets complicated as the business continually changes direction. This scenario played out like a soap opera during a few tense moments when the IT Director, Vincent Hermomma lost his temper upon learning that the Network Administrator had been involved in projects that he was unaware of. Fearing a loss of control over his position in the company, Mr. Hermomma feverishly demaned to be included in all upcoming projects.

For any of you who have experienced a loss of control in your job, might I suggest the book The Haves and the Have Nots: The Abuse of Power and Priveledge in the Workplace... And how to Control it
