The Essence of Whole People

I just discovered this quote by DH Lawrence and it speaks to the idea of Whole People and respecting the individuality of each of us. Do you agree with him on abandoning the "cult" of personality or is that too simplistic?

I want relations which are not purely personal, based on purely personal qualities; but relations based upon some unanimous accord in truth or belief, and a harmony of purpose, rather than of personality. I am weary of personality. Let us be easy and impersonal, not forever fingering over our own souls, and the souls of our acquaintances, but trying to create a new life, a new common life, a new complete tree of life from the roots that are within us.

D. H. Lawrence

This is the "new paradigm" that we are trying to help organizations embrace, the idea that organizations that focus on a common goal, but have room for each of us to pursue achievement of that goal for our own purposes creates the strongest bonds. What do you think?
