I agree with everyone one of these. I really do think that most people should try and exercise these virtues even in there personal lives.

I have been lucky enough over the years to have management (at least at the level just above me) who took this approach. But, I've seen other situations where the employees were not respected ... perhaps not quite “These are a bunch of retards that I have to babysit” but very very close to that. When quality employees are trusted and respected, their productivity will go up. When they are not respected (this can be overt or can be apparent through the micromanagement of higher-ups), they will resent the management, will not be particularly motivated to work hard (since their work isn't respected anyway), and morale problems will develop. This is particularly problematic since it is easier to CAUSE poor employee morale than to cure it.</p> <p>Thanks for sharing that list.</p> I could not agree more.
