What do you think prevents most business owners from acting on the vital importance of positive social relations in the workplace?

[Janina Paasonen]

Their will to receive for oneself only makes them egoistic. Instead of focusing to social question they focus to personal profit. This makes them attached, creedy and scary.

[Marita]

Most business owners focus on profit, growth and efficiency. If people loved their co-workers and their work, the bosses would feel that the workers might spend too much time chatting away with each other on coffee breaks and lunches that no work would be done. It is about control and power, divide and conquer. When the focus is on money, people become robot-like “resources” whose function is not to maintain social relations but to obey and be productive. High productivity gets distracted by human interaction.

Their egos make them want to act superior to others

[Nikole Roehl]

egoism…..

[Juule]

I would think that success is the ultimate goal for any business. The owner with this in mind probably wouldn’t consider positive social relationships of the employees as a means to that end.  It’s not been taught or practiced as being part of a successful business model over the years. It’s as if there was a blindspot to that concept.
