3 insights from class 1/16

1. The way to get rid of fear in the work place is to replace it with love. When Bro. Adams was teaching this, I realized how true that was. We have to have love in the work place to have an effective organization because without it their will be fear. In the case study, the engineers were to afraid to say anything even though they had useful information. Because of this, nothing was done to help to fix the ship.

2. People in an organization have to have high courage and high consideration to have a win-win situation. After discussing this idea in class I also saw how it related to the case study and other organizations. Without both high courage and high consideration, you can't have a win-win situation. You can either have a win-lose or a lose-lose. And of course in an organization we want a win-win situation. In the case study there was a worker named Ham who had high courage but low consideration for the other workers. There was also some engineers who had low courage but high consideration. If both of these people could have had both high courage and high consideration, they could have worked together and there might not have been so many problems.

3. Another thing I learned in class was how to motivate a person in an organization the right way. You can butter them up, beat them up, or use control and focus. But when their personal mission colides with the organization's mission, the person in the organization will go where their heart says. That's that kind of motivation you want in an organization.
