Strictly he is not saying that the team-members should feel entitled. I understand his example to be that you can behave like you are entitled but aren't feeling entitled.

I agree though that he doesn't talk about cases where a feeling of entitlement might be proper. Like in the team case.

OK, I bite it. I can also read it as that he is saying that. But in that case he kind of makes an acceptable case for that. He mentions the change of culture (where natural status differentials are no longer acceptable) and points out the conflicts it causes. So why downvote? At least a constructive comment would have been proper.
