Recently during a workshop a group made a presentation in which they mentioned the term 'Sacred Cows'. The CEO of the organisation asked them at the end of their presentation, 'What do you think are our Sacred Cows?' As each of the member of the team began looking at each other, one member decided to speak up, 'We would have to take the fith on that one'.

What is it about not wanting to unearth assumtions, fears or home truths that stops individuals, team and organisations from breaking free of the shackles of the so called 'Sacred Cows' and ultimately changing the heard mentality that many become stuck in.
