Chapter Invisible Barrier 11 in Business Creativity, 2005, pp 191-213 from Palgrave Macmillan

Abstract: Abstract On a scale of 1 to 10, with 1 being no embarrassment at all, and 10 dying of embarrassment, rate how you’d feel in the following instances: Suppose you slipped and fell in a crowded public place, spilling a bag of groceries Suppose you were a guest at an elegant dinner, and the person seated next to you spilled his plate into his lap while eating Suppose you were the one who spilled the plate Suppose you discovered you were the only person at a particular social occasion who was dressed casually while everyone else was dressed formally Suppose you entered an apparently empty office, turned on the lights and surprised two colleagues who were making love Suppose it was you who was making love, when a colleague of the same sex entered Suppose it was you who was making love, when a colleague of the opposite sex entered Suppose your mother had come to visit you when you were in the university and accompanied you to all your classes for a week Suppose you were completely naked in the bathroom and the best friend of your husband or wife were to walk in Suppose a friend of yours confessed that they were in love with you, but you didn’t have the same feelings.
