Part 05 - Leadership Principles
The evidence of the importance of morale is powerful. High morale and outstanding performance
go together. Which causes which is unclear, but an evaluation of the high morale—100 Best
Companies to Work for in America against the Russell 3000, an index of large and small
companies that mirrors the 100 Best, shows the following most recent year results: average
annual financial returns of 27.5% for the 100 Best Companies vs. 17.5% for the Russell 3000.
Ten year results tell the same story: 23.4% for the 100 Best vs. 14.8% for the Russell 3000. To
illustrate this huge difference, consider: $1000 invested in the 100 Best would grow to $8188 in a
decade, while $1000 invested in the Russell 3000 would become $3976.
We have seen dramatic changes in the meaning of work in Western culture from Greek scorn for
labor, to Hebraic atonement for sin, to early Christian disregard and disdain, to later Christian
calling to work, to socialist doctrines of work for joy, to the present day, when work represents
for many a search for meaning and self-expression.
The value the individual attaches to the work experience is an important factor in the morale
equation. It makes an enormous difference whether work is viewed as punishment or as an
opportunity for fulfillment. Primarily because of the influence of culture, work has a positive
value for large numbers of people in American society, who seek personal meaning and a sense
of self-worth in the work experience. Consider the alcoholic who endures all loss until he loses
his job, or the employee whose loss of her status at work results in the afflictions of self-doubt
and depression.

Part 05 - Leadership Principles
Table 5.1 illustrates how attitudes about people range from pessimism at one extreme to optimism
at the other.
The Pessimistic Pole—Four Views of Human Nature. We begin by examining the attitude that
people are inherently selfish and uncooperative. An early giant in the history of Western thought,
Niccolό Machiavelli, in The Prince (1515), urged that, because of man's selfish and
uncooperative nature, people must be strictly and ruthlessly controlled by anyone who seeks to
gain or maintain a position of power. A ruler must put aside any question of morality and achieve
control at any price and by whatever means available, including fear and force. Machiavelli
wrote:
It is much safer to be feared than loved. For it may be said of men in general that
they are ungrateful, voluble dissemblers, anxious to avoid dangers, and covetous
of gain.

Part 05 - Leadership Principles
The political philosopher Thomas Hobbes wrote in The Leviathan (1651) that human beings
covet power and material goods, and will attempt to attain these even at the expense of others.
They live in perpetual competition with their neighbors. He states, "If any two individuals desire
the same thing, which nevertheless they cannot both enjoy, they must become enemies. Law must
therefore define what is moral. But, in order for law to be effective, an authority must exist to
enforce it." Hobbes believed that people recognize the need for laws and law enforcement out of
fear of loss of life and property. As a consequence, they enter into a social contract, giving up the
individual rights possessed in nature to a central authority. In this way, people bring about the
creation of a commonwealth ruled by a sovereign.
Psychoanalysis has concluded that the primitive, savage, and evil impulses of
mankind have not vanished in any individual, but continue their existence,
although in repressed state; and they wait for opportunities to display their
activity.
A predisposition of human beings to be possessive and warlike was noted by the philosopher
Henri Bergson, who wrote:
The Optimistic Pole—Four Views of Human Nature. Now let us turn to a more positive view
that emphasizes the human tendency to be helpful and cooperative. In On the Commonwealth (51
B.C.), the Roman philosopher Cicero argued that people by nature believe in goodness and abhor
savagery and baseness. On the assumption of mutual advantage, they come together by social
instinct. When enough individuals are gathered, they form a democratic association or
commonwealth for the benefit of all. Out of this group emerges a leader who governs voluntary
subjects through a moral claim to their allegiance rather than through regulation based on force.1
The philosopher John Locke argued that the human being's fundamental inclination is to use
reason, and that reason itself establishes cooperation as the basis for human relationships. In The
Second Treatise of Government, Locke wrote that people of reason are inherently disposed
toward mutual support and cooperation:
Nature has a law to govern it, which obliges everyone; and reason, which is that
law, teaches all mankind that, being all equal and independent, no one ought to
harm another in his life, health, liberty, or possessions.

Part 05 - Leadership Principles
In Cooperation Among Animals, social biologist W.C. Allee reported research evidence
showing that cooperative relationships increase the probability of survival for any single
individual, as well as for a species as a whole. One of his experiments showed that it takes
proportionately less toxic colloidal silver to kill a single goldfish in an aquarium than if the
aquarium holds a number of goldfish. He suggested that the ability of a group of goldfish to
neutralize a poison increases faster than that of a single goldfish. As Allee explored further
evidences of cooperation in higher animals, he came to the following conclusion:
The psychologist Karen Horney believed that all individuals in their natural
development seek affection and approval from others. Where interpersonal relationships
are not supportive, anxiety develops and this interferes with the growth of a healthy
personality. In such cases, people tend to respond in three basic ways: 1) "moving toward
people"—feeling inadequate, they become attached and dependent; 2) "moving against
people"—rejected, they become rebellious and aggressive; and 3) "moving away from
people"—they seek comfort for rejection in symbolic substitutes and fantasy."
Horney did not believe people are doomed by predetermined instincts, or that patterns of
behavior are eternally established by early life experience. Her concept of human existence is
hopeful and optimistic. She believed a person is born neither a devil nor a saint, but that from the
time of birth the course of a person's development reflects the nature of relationships with
significant people in the person's environment. Also, she viewed the human being as a proactive
pilot, not as a reactive robot. What is needed is not a method of controlling innately selfish or
even predatory drives toward competition and conflict with other people, but a means of tapping
the human potential for joining in productive relationships with others.
In general, the leader who has a positive attitude about people will generate the affection and
support of followers. The leader who has a pessimistic view will generate distrust and self-
protective behavior.

Part 05 - Leadership Principles
No two people are exactly alike; yet the leader must gain the support of all group members.
Table 5.2 shows how people are like animals, each with its own nature and potential to
contribute. Consider the rabbits, lions, and turtles of your work group or team, and capitalize on
the different needs and interests of each group member. Take action to channel his or her efforts
to help the group succeed.
➢ ELEPHANT—Elephants always remember the bad things, so utilize this talent by asking,
"What could we have done differently?"
➢ ROOSTER—Tell roosters to be quiet until the timing is right. Roosters need attention, so
give it to them by letting them make announcements.
➢ PARROT—The parrot is like the rooster, but with lots of color, so put them in PR.
➢ RABBIT—Rabbits are full of energy, so give them something to do. Also, have meetings
with an agenda or they will jump from topic to topic.
➢ HOUND DOG—Hound dogs are loyal and they lie by the fire, so remind them of the group's
purpose, give them a scent, and say, "Let's go."
➢ ALLIGATOR—Alligators usually won't bother you unless provoked; then they snap your leg
off. If possible, work around the sensitivities and sore spots of alligators.
➢ SNAKE—The only agreement is that snakes are wiggly and can be dangerous, so, beware of
snakes.

Part 05 - Leadership Principles
➢ OSTRICH—The ostrich avoids, avoids, avoids. . . sticking its head in the sand to deny
reality. The ostrich won't pay attention until touched personally, so touch them personally.
Then they will move fast.
➢ LION—The lion wants to be king. Recognition and the chance to influence events are
especially important to the lion, so give him importance.
➢ TURTLE—Turtles don't go anywhere until they stick their necks out, so ask for ideas and
reward risk-taking behavior. Appreciate their talent for persistence and survival.
➢ MONKEY—Monkeys are very smart, but what they like to do is play, so make work play.
Capitalize on their natural tendencies to be creative and solve problems by turning work into
a challenge and a chance to have a good time.
➢ BUZZARD—Buzzards won't initiate work, but they pick on everyone else's bones, so
channel buzzards to handle important details that can't be overlooked.
➢ SHARK—Sharks kill things. The secret is to get them to attack the right things, so get your
sharks lined up and committed to the right objectives.

Part 05 - Leadership Principles
Trust and respect are the key elements of good human relations. Trust is
expressed by openness in sharing ideas and feelings. Respect is demonstrated by
willingness to listen to the ideas and feelings of others. Without trust and respect, human
relations break down. The need for trust is emphasized in the following story.
Trust in Me
Three turtles went for a walk, and one said to the others, “Let’s go
have a cup of coffee.”
They entered a restaurant, and soon thereafter it began to rain.
The oldest turtle said to the youngest, “Son, would you mind running
home for my umbrella?”
Whereupon, the young turtle replied skeptically, “I’ll go get your
umbrella if you promise not to drink my coffee.”
The old turtle promised, and the young turtle left to perform his
mission.
Two years passed, when the old turtle said: “You know, I don’t think
Harry is coming back. We might as well drink his coffee.”
Just then, a tiny voice was heard from behind the door: “If you do, I
won’t go get your umbrella.”
The following exercise shows the level of trust and respect you have
with other people. You will discover whether you are a turtle, an owl, a
bull-in-a-china-shop, or a picture window in your style of human relations.
This exercise can be completed individually or with another person. It is
useful in all areas of human relations, including management
development, team building, and family counseling.

SCORING
Step One
Total the scores you gave yourself for the odd-numbered questions—all questions with T
in front of them. This total represents your evaluation of your willingness to express
yourself. Record the score on the TRUST axis in Figure 5.1. Next, total the scores you
gave yourself for the even-numbered questions –all questions with R in front of them.
This is your willingness to listen to others. Record this score on the RESPECT axis. Then
find the point where the two scores intersect and shade in the enclosed area.
Step Two
You are now ready to analyze the scores you gave your partner. Total the scores you gave
your partner for all odd-numbered questions—questions with (T) in front of them.
Record this score on the TRUST axis in Figure 5.2. Next, total the scores you gave you
partner for all even numbered questions—all questions with (R) in front of them. Record
this score on the RESPECT axis in Figure 5.2. Then find the point where these two
scores intersect and shade in the enclosed area.

Step Three
Exchange evaluations with your partner.
Step Four
Compare your self-evaluation and your partner’s evaluation with the four human relation styles in
Figure 5.3. Which style do you think you are most like? Which does your partner think you are
most like? Does your partner see you as you see yourself?

Step Five
Go back to the questionnaire and ask your partner what specific things you could do to raise your
low scores. Also give recommendations to your partner to raise low scores.
Step Six
Discuss the importance of self-expression (showing trust) and listening (showing respect) as these
relate to your partnership. Are these two traints important in relations with others on the job and
in the home?

Part 05 - Leadership Principles
INTERPRETATION
Turtle
The turtle is reluctant to express ideas or feelings to others; nor does the turtle
listen to others. The turtle is in a shell. Whether meaning to or not, the turtle
communicates low trust in the motives of others and low respect for others’ opinions.
The result is a large “region of the unknown”. Misunderstanding, frustration, untapped
creativity, and unresolved problems live in the region. People who have turtle
relationships find them to be cold, impersonal, and unsatisfying.

Part 05 - Leadership Principles
Just as partners may experience turtle styles of human relations, so may whole
groups. Turtle relationships may exist between working groups, between management
and employees, and between an organization and its public. Such relationships are
characterized by low morale and poor performance.
Turtle relationships can be improved if people listen to the ideas and feelings of
others and openly express their own ideas and feelings. This process can be started by
one, but it takes two to improve a turtle relationship. Someone must take the initiative,
and someone must respond favorably.
Owl
The owl style of human relations is better than the turtle, because it shows a good
deal of respect toward others. The owl gives time and attention, thus showing concern for
the ideas and feelings of others. However, when someone listens, listens, listens, but
does not share ideas and feelings in return, a “façade” develops, with tow corresponding
drawbacks: 1) an impression of role playing and insincerity and 2) suppression of
conflict, with a resulting decrease in creativity and potential for problem solving.
Avoidance of self-expression and an overreliance on listening is present in the
owl style. Ultimately, this will not be satisfying for either partner, because it represents a
one-sided relationship. The solution is to demonstrate trust in others by becoming more
self-expressive. A woman who listens to her family and friends, but who continually
censors her own behavior because she fears disapproval, has an owl style of human
relations. By more openly expressing herself, she can lower the façade and raise the
quality of her relationships.
It takes two to improve an owl relationship: 1) The owl gradually must become
more open, which takes time because the idea that they must change is difficult for many
people to accept. Also dealing with confrontation and being honest in self-expression can
be threatening. 2) The owl’s partner must show respect by listening as ideas, hopes,
goals, and feelings are shared.
Bull-in-a-China Shop
The bull-in-a-china-shop style of human relations is like the owl in that it is half-
good and half-bad. The good part is that the bull is open and honest with feelings and
ideas. Whether they are right or wrong, popular or not, you always know where bulls
stand. By open self-expression, the bull says, “I trust you and I believe you will not use
what I say to hurt me.” This is the good part. The bad part is the enormous “blind spot”
the bull has created by not listening to others. Perhaps unintentionally, the bull is
demonstrating that other people’s feelings and ideas are unimportant.
Whether the bull-in-a-china-shop style develops as a result of ego striving, natural
aggressiveness, or actual superiority, it is often destructive in human relationships. The
blind spot typically contains negative data—the frustration, resentment, and anger of
others – which may one day erupt. Eruption could take the form of revolution, such as
sabotage or escape. Eruption could also be turned inward and result in inferiority
feelings and low self-esteem for the bull’s partner and friends.
The solution is for the bull-in-a-china-shop to listen more to others. The bull
must realize that others need to express themselves too and should show respect for them
by listening. People who rarely ask for others’ opinions or listen to their problems, have

Part 05 - Leadership Principles
a bull-in-a-china-shop style of human relations, and they have a big blind spot. By
listening, they can reduce this blind spot and improve the quality of their relationships on
the job and in the home.
Picture Window
The best style of human relations results in dialogue between people, and it is
symbolized by the picture window. With this style, mutual respect is shown as each
person listens to the ideas and feelings of others. Interpersonal trust is also demonstrated
as ideas and feelings are shared openly and honestly.
It is important to note that the arena is the dominant feature of picture window
relationships, and what goes on in the arena is candid and free flowing discussion about
issues, events, and experiences. By no means is this dialogue tame. Indeed, opposing
points of view and diverse values sometimes clash in this arena. Conflict is viewed
positively, however, as all parties recognize that they are not identical twins, that
disagreement is natural, and that out of diversity can come increased creativity and
intense satisfaction.
DISCUSSION
How do people achieve picture windows? How can fear be replaced by trust in a
relationship? First, look at some climates in which interaction takes place. Normally,
people are unwilling to engage in self-disclosure if they feel what they say or do will be
used against them. Consider the case of oppressed people, such as ghetto Jews during
World War II. Self-survival dictated distrust. Or consider the consumer who wants to
purchase a used car from an unscrupulous seller. Sometimes a buyer-beware climate may
require distrust.

Φ CASE
The Coffee Break
You are the personnel director of a large company. While there has been no written policy
regarding coffee breaks, they are a long-established tradition, and all employees avail themselves
of the privilege each morning and afternoon of the workday. In fact, company management has
allowed a vending machine company to place their machines in several locations throughout the
building in which the company is located. As a result, employees take coffee breaks, usually 10
minutes long, at any time of the day they desire.
In general, this approach has not caused too much difficulty in work accomplishment, but in
one department, in the opinion of its supervisor, the work has suffered. There was socializing
around desks while the coffee was consumed; telephones went unanswered, and work came to a
halt. In some instances, the employees in that department took breaks longer than 10 minutes,
and this too upset work patterns.
Because of this, the supervisor, Mr. Kobe, issued a memorandum to all employees under his
jurisdiction. In it he reaffirmed the tradition of the coffee break, but he restricted it to 10:15 to
10:25 in the morning and 3:15 to 3:25 in the afternoon. He also requested all employees to be
back at their desks at the end of each break.
When the memo was received, many of the employees reacted negatively. Indignation ran
high, and two employees were designated as spokesmen to come to you with their grievance
without first going to their supervisor, Mr. Kobe.
Discussion Questions
1. If you were a supervisor, how would you handle questions about employee breaks?
2. If you had a complaint about your manager, what would you do to solve the problem?
3. How would you handle the coffee break issue? What would you do or say with the
employees? What would you do or say with Mr. Kobe?

INTERPRETATION
How does your organization rate on the Effective Measures for Raising Morale test? Add
up your scores, and look up the total in the following chart.
In summary, when an employee has an attitude problem that is work related, management
should study the situation and try to help. It may be discovered that management is part of the
problem. Sometimes, the problem will be caused by other employees. Often, the problem is self-
caused by the individual employee. In any case, management’s potential to help is enormous.
If you are a manager and have an employee attitude problem, you should be concerned
for the sake of the individual and the good of the organization. If the problem is work related, it
has its origin in one or a combination of the following areas—problems with the job; problems
with the work group; problems with management; problems with economic rewards—and you
can help to solve it if you try.

become more productive.
It is important to maximize strengths and improve in areas of concern. Circle the group member
role that is most like your behavior when you are at your personal best. Circle the role that is
most like you when you are at your worst. Consider concrete actions you can take to capitalize
on strengths, correct low points, and help your group succeed.

Step One. Five people should sit in a circle, close enough so that each can reach the
space in front of the others in the group. A sixth person may be an observer.
Step Two. Using one set of broken squares, the observer should randomly distribute two
to four pieces to each participant. All of the pieces should be distributed.
Step Three. The group’s task is to assemble five squares of equal size. Note the
following guidelines:

Step One. Five people should sit in a circle. Sit close enough so that each can reach the space in
front of the others in the group. A sixth person may be an observer.
Step Two. Each participant should take one of the figures shown on the following five pages, cut
out the three parts of each figure, and place them on the table. Each should use a different page.
The instructor may want to cut the pieces and laminate them in advance for permanent use.
Step Three. All the pieces from all five pages should be placed in a single pile in the middle of
the table. One participant or the observer should randomly distribute two to four pieces to each
participant. All of the pieces should be used.
Step Four. The task facing the group is to assemble five squares of equal size. Note the
following guidelines.

DISCUSSION
After the group has completed the five squares (or after 15 minutes have passed), discuss
the following questions:
• Was it frustrating not to talk? Are there times on the job when traditions, conflicts, or
other barriers result in failure to communicate?
• Was there sensitivity to others? Did someone make a square and then sit back as if to
say, "Well, I've got mine—where's yours?" Does this ever happen in the work setting?
• Did cooperation exist? Was anyone left without any pieces? How did it feel having a
task to do without the means to do it? Does this ever happen on the job?
• Did someone try to get other people's pieces? Have you ever seen an asset—such as the
desire to do a good job—become a liability when a well-intentioned person intrudes on
the work or feelings of others?
• Did nonverbal behavior play a role in the exercise? Was it constructive or harmful?
What are the nonverbal actions that obtain positive results on the job? What nonverbal
actions obtain negative results?
• Did cheating occur? Is this what happens on the job when there is a failure to
communicate or lack of teamwork? Do people cheat to accomplish tasks?
• Are there problems and bottlenecks in your organization or team setting that could be
solved through better communication and teamwork? Would this improve the quality of
work and the quality of work life?

APPLICATION
Agenda
1. ____________________________
2. ____________________________
3. ____________________________
√ Invite participants. Schedule the meeting far enough in advance to allow time to plan
and prepare. Schedule a private and comfortable meeting place that will be free from
interruptions.
√ Control the meeting size. Invite only those who can directly involve themselves with the
problem. Greek mythology states that the optimum number of participants is between 4 and 8
(more than the 3 graces, fewer than the 9 muses). There is, however, much precedent for a group
size between 9 and 12 (9 Justices of the Supreme Court, 11 players on a football team, and 12
members on a jury).
Participants
√ Inform participants of the nature of the meeting and their expected roles. Examples:
√ Prepare equipment and materials. Are power points needed? What about a screen and
projector? Do you need a flip chart and markers? Should you provide pencils and note pads?

√ Plan the seating arrangement and prepare name cards. This shows the meeting is important
to you. The attitude will be contagious, causing participants to give their best efforts. Name
cards can also help in human engineering. You may want quiet members of the group to sit next
to people who will encourage them to talk. Overly vocal participants should sit on your blind
side, so that you can ignore them if necessary without hurting their feelings. People who do not
get along should not sit face to face. People who are friends and like to talk should sit apart.
Strong supporters, good problem solvers, and natural leaders should occupy the corners. See
Figure 5.5.
√ Consider refreshments. Coffee, tea, and soft drinks create a relaxed atmosphere. Avoid
mixing alcohol with meetings.
√ Start the meeting as close as possible to the scheduled time; never end the meeting after
the scheduled time if at all possible.
√ Put the group at ease. Give a proper greeting, and tell an appropriate
story, anecdote, or joke. As soon as possible, state the purpose of the meeting. Give necessary
background information, list objectives to be achieved, outline the method or procedure of the
meeting, and begin.

√ Follow the agenda; keep the discussion on the topic. Encourage group participants by
exchanging ideas, asking questions, and preventing monopolization. Keep the meeting moving.
√ Be factual, specific, and clear when you speak, but never dogmatic. Use available data to
support your statements.

√ Neither dominate the discussion nor remain passive. Your goal should be to gain as much
involvement as possible from all participants. Every member of the group should make at least
one contribution at every meeting.
√ Understand why different people do what they do. Use this knowledge to avoid personal
rivalries. When you must deny a request, reject the idea, not the person. Be tolerant of divergent
views, but remain in control.
√ Before ending the meeting, summarize important points and actions members should take.
Communicate an action plan.

To personalize the subject of human relations, ask your students to consider questions such as
these:
1. What are your beliefs about human nature? Do you have an optimistic or pessimistic
view? On what information and experiences do you base your views?
3. In dealing with people, have you ever experienced a turtle relationship? Have you ever
experienced a picture-window relationship? Describe the difference and its impact on
you.
4. Consider human relations in your workplace. Describe present conditions. How does
this influence morale and performance? What can you do to develop mutual trust and
interpersonal respect?
5. Give an example of your worst listening habit. What steps can you take to improve?
6. Discuss the role of civility in the workplace. Consider true-life efforts to create a
psychologically healthy work environment.
7. A sense of belonging and acceptance can transcend space and time. Write a letter to
someone who needs to hear from you. Show trust by sharing thoughts and feelings.
Show respect by asking for ideas and suggestions. Mail your letter.
9. Compare a negative group experience you have had with a positive group experience by
using the principles of group effectiveness. What was done to tap the constructive power
of the group? By the leader? By group members?
10. What is your problem-solving style—Einstein, Darwin, Socrates, or Ford? How does
your style apply in your work or educational experiences?
11. Divide into discussion groups. Cite true-life examples of team building efforts. What
were the dymanics? What were the results?
12. Use the leader, member, and team evaluation forms to rate conditions in a true-life
school, social, or work group.

Omdat deze digitale editie is gemaakt van een goedkope herdruk uit
1890, laat de kwaliteit van de illustraties iets te wensen over. De
horizontale strepen zijn als in het origineel.
