Hi, Carpe. I don't have your email, so this is going to the list. Apologies to those who aren't interested.
I'm Michael. I work for the Tax Office here in the Land of Oz. Harrison Owen came over some months back and spoke to us about the possibility of using OS to get a grip on what the *real* 'relationship' and communication issues are - and hopefully take steps to resolve them. Alas, because we've made wholesale federal tax changes in the last couple of years, this sort of thing is still largely on our 'to do' list. I am particularly interested to see how you go with the likely enforcement 'versus' education/cooperation debate, which has had a high profile with us ever since we started seriously donning a 'behaviouralists' cap. On an optimistic note, it's turned out that some of our biggest champions of this approach were the formerly sceptical, hard-line auditors who 'saw the light'. We're about getting the carrot/stick balance right with every taxpayer (er, human being) we deal with. I'd love to hear how you go with your group - please let me know. Ciao.
