Prevailing Management School

Motivation
From Scientific Management in the 1920s to the School of Human Relations, trends in management work evolve and methods get fine-tuned over time. I heard in 1990 from a fellow manager born outside the USA that the world wide management attitude is "She Sucked" at the end of every century of recorded business literature. This viewpoint appears to be where none of the needs of the employees are met by their supervisor's role other than the paycheck and that which power provides. Perhaps we can transition with our Government today standing for change.

Kindness Not Withheld

Offering outward signs of emotional support or secure comfort is optionally appreciated. Underlying manipulations of getting only what one wants by either end of the channel is judged differently. A selfish interest in trying to be kind can be alternately smart, unfriendly, or perhaps gentlemanly in today's day and age, but not wise or pure. Sharing of wealth in kindness can be intended for one, a few people, or a large society and can be known or unknown. To recognize someone for generosity of spirit and love to you it is best to go deeper than pleasure of either.
