Creating Healthy Workplaces

Healthy business is a mutual meeting of needs. In the words of Paul Wellstone: We all do better when we all do better.
My path has never been about climbing the corporate ladder.

My path is to encourage and empower the many people stuck at the bottom of the ladder whose labor keeps the ladder from collapsing.

Business, at its heart, is an act of community: We work together to meet one another's needs.

We, the people doing the work, are the heart of the business. Providing us with a decent living is a primary function of business.

Business exists to serve people. People do not exist to serve business.

If your model of management is, "I'm in charge! You will obey!" then your software needs a major upgrade.

We, the employees, are the reason your business exists.

A business exists to serve its employees as much as it exists to serve its customers.

What's right and true isn't a matter of who's in charge.

When we see that every human being has authority over themselves, that's revolutionary. That's a game changer.

Nobody has the right to have power over another person.

Authority is about leadership, not about having power over other people.

It is healthy to question authority, especially when authority behaves questionably.

Business is an exchange of goods and services for the mutual meeting of needs.

Employees are not an expense to be minimized. We are an asset to be valued, rewarded, and retained.

It's precisely because retail work and retail workers tend to be looked down upon that some retail managers, both at the store level and the corporate level, tend to manage by asserting dominance over the other workers in the store and in the company.

We perform different functions.

We serve in different roles.

We are all fundamentally equal, coworkers working together to do what needs to be done.

Nobody is above.
Nobody is below.

This is the fundamental principle of Creating Healthy Workplaces.

If the interests of the company conflict with the best interests and well-being of the employees, something is very wrong with that company.

We agree to work cooperatively with leadership to get the work done. We do not surrender ourselves, body, mind, and spirit. We work with, not under.

Every exercise of authority as principled leadership must respect the authority each person has over themselves.

Healthy leadership respects each person's authority over themselves.

Employees are not expenses to be minimized in order to maximize profits for the shareholders.
