Harrison, My first thought when I read this story was, "Whew, what a relief for that poor manager!" Now he doesn't have to imagine that he's in control and get panicked when things go their own way (as they always do). Releasing himself from that burden of trying to control things, he can be more present. He will be able to sense movement and direction and undercurrents that his anxiety about control was blocking from him before. Now he can be really effective!
