SELF-HELP BOOKS FOR PARLIAMENTARY STAFF
An anonymous source gave the Taxpayers’ Union a copy of an animal-inspired self-help book that Parliamentary Services has distributed to its hundreds of staff.
In the glossy 115-page book, Parliamentary staff are encouraged to be like animals:
- “The Wolf is courageous and stable. If we can learn to keep our confidence stable and be courageous enough to have it we will be like the Wolf.”
- “Frogs are super flexible. Let’s try be like one.”
- “Gorilla’s [sic] are known for their raw power and dominant poses. When you power pose think of the Gorilla.”
- “We chose the bear because it uses sleep to recover and heal. Much like we should.”
Parliamentary Services employs about 720 people. The book’s website prices it at $20 a copy, so that brings the total cost to over $14,000.
You can read more about this book, and New Zealand Taxpayers comments about it, here > www.scoop.co.nz/stories/PO1801/S00084/parliamentary-services-is-a-kingdom-of-waste.htm
