tion.

In an important, but dated, Globe and Mail
editorial, then-editor, William Thorsell, wrote a piece that
should be on every business students desk:
When you study for a degree in business administration
or public policy, the courses are heavy with economics,
finance, statistics, political theory and law. When you arrive in the world of work, you realize that your graduate
school courses should have included psychology, sociology, psychiatry and literature -- less Adam Smith, more
William Shakespeare.
The human factor in business, sport, the universities,
arts and politics has an enormous impact on enterprises
and nations, but receives very little concentrated study
in our professional schools. Everyone talks about office
politics, but hardly anyone knows much about them.
Envy, greed, insecurity, ambition, lust, loathing, idealism, love, loyalty and betrayal are the durable subjects
of Shakespeares plays because they weigh on history so
much. If you do not understand that, and if you cannot
operate on a field that is crowded with such dynamic,
non-objective forces, you will be unable to use the
knowledge you so dutifully accumulated in school.
Do students of international relations realize how important personal feelings are in colouring the course
of events? Probably not. They believe the old saw that
nations have no friends, only interests, and they therefore underestimate the personal factor in international
relations.
Ideas make the world; emotions make the world go
round; management schools should teach more Shakespeare.

talk, what I read was his serious reminder to upper management that while rules were important, to neglect or
ignore people was a more serious moral issue. Ecology and ethics of relationships were out of whack! Rules
were experienced as more important than people. His
15 ailments or diseases were strong reminders that
upper management was not doing its job. After personally talking with hierarchy who have lived and worked in
Rome, the fact that he lowered the boom on his upper
management, I was told, was not a last-minute decision. Some even claimed that he was elected to do this
work precisely with many hoping that he would live long
enough to get adequate traction for a new vision for his
upper management or, in my terms, of making a more
vibrant worthplace that holds dignity for everyone, as well
as getting the job done or, in my terms, of creating a
more responsive presence of servce for customers.
Lets examine the 15 ailments or diseases and my suggested solutions:
1.Ailment: Feeling immortal, immune or indispensable.
Solution: Open to feedback, wary of CEO disease
2.Ailment: Working too hard, excessive activity.
Solution: Recognizing that rest is also critical to human
performance.
3.Ailment: Becoming a rules-and-regulations only type.
Solution: Appreciating the need for the human touch.
4.Ailment: Overplanning in a control-freak way.
Solution: Knowing that one cannot control everything
and everyone.
5.Ailment: Losing sight of the workplace community.
Solution: Working with and among others, teamwork.


In an age when political correctness seems to
have usurped both common sense and authentic communication, it is time we get back to integrity in our relationships (ROIR). For years now, what I have called The
Great Insanity has taken over such that our people or
human factor priorities have been neglected and even
dismissed in favour of profits only.

6.Ailment: Suffering from Meaning Alzheimers.


Solution: Remembering to regain purpose in and of the
workplace.

So, you may be asking: What has Pope Francis got to do


with all this? Let me explain. There is such a thing as an
ecology and ethics of relationships, the healthy interplay
of respect and dignity and connectedness with vision and
purpose and action for each one of us, personally, and
for our workplaces. When I read Francis Christmas 2014

8.Ailment: Building walls around and unto oneself.


Solution: Connecting with reality, concrete people, not
just bureaucracy.

49

7.Ailment: Being absorbed in rivalry or boastfulness.


Solution: Knowing that personas have their time and
place.

9.Ailment: Engaging in grumbling and the terrorism of


gossip.

HUG PEOPLE, THEN TREES!

An Ecology and Ethics of Relationships


Dr. Michael Rock
Licensed Emotional Intelligence Facilitator
Professor (ret.) Ethics and Leadership
University of Guelph, Ontario
Simorgh Magazine, January 2015

It is winter time, January 2015. In Ottawa, Canada, this


time is often called the dead of winter. We have just left
the summer/fall season. Emotionally and for practical
reasons also! some just want to keep delaying winters
onset; for others winter offers new wonders and pleasures. The one thing we can be sure of is that we are now
in a new season of nature and also, of life. Tyler, the main
character in the movie, Fight Club, says that our lives
are ending one minute at a time! He tells the viewer,
This is your life, as if to say that we should not waste
our lives but make the best of everything. Living is very
precious even if in the dead of winter dying seems to be
all around. In Canada numerous places are simply covered in snow. Many ask, When will the warmer weather
come? And many do leave this death for warmer climes
in the Caribbean, Florida, Hawaii, etc.
I introduce Tylers quip to remind ourselves that wherever we are we must embrace life; we must also embrace
dying and death in other words, transformation, which
involves both dimensions. Otherwise, it seems to me,
we will go mad. We cant explain it all away! I wrote in
an earlier article the words of the late comic, W.C. Fields,
and I repeat them here: We aint getting out alive! The
inevitable will happen to all of us; none of us is immune
to the inner dynamics of living and dying. I suggest that a
New Years resolution should be to put people first! One
www.simorghmagazine.com

incredible approach to examining an ecology and ethics


of relationships is to look at the 15 diseases that the
current Pope Francis spoke about in his Christmas talk to
those in upper management (called the Curia), that is,
the Catholic Churchs administrative wing and bureaucracy in Rome. This may seem like a surprising approach
but each of Francis fifteen ailments can easily be
translated into terms that are just as applicable to business management. I intend to name these fifteen diseases but also to provide a suggested cure for each one
of them. Francis asked his bureaucrats the cardinals and
bishops to do a serious examinination of conscience on
themselves. I propose at the start of 2015 that each of us
do a personal examination of conscience as well on his
ideas of people and rules. Its only too obvious from
just a simple reading of the worlds news that we need
a huge dose of self-awareness if we are to stay sane and
treat one another with dignity and respect worldwide.
In my teaching and business consulting practices over the
years the guiding vision I have used and followed came
to me intuitively one early morning while I was jogging.
I have always seen that the vision represents the key to
what we do or work at as well as to who we are as people
in undertaking the work. I have always distinguished
between a worthplace and a workplace; both are necessary. The worthplace provides and nourishes the context
for what ethics professor, Moses Pava, calls the meaning-based organization and the workplace provides
and nourishes the context for the commodity-based
organization. The meaning-based worthplace provides
the context where employees locate and interpret lifes
meanings in their lives since employees spend many
hours of each day in such a context. The commoditybased workplace provides an instrumental tool to satisfy
established wants and preferences. This is what Pava
calls the instrumental and expressive understandings
of a corporation. For him, the human quest for meaning
and significance takes center stage. In short, the first
(meaning-based) addresses the issue of who does the
work (the employees or the people dimension); the
second (commodity-based) addresses the issue of what
needs to be produced (the product or the what dimension). A people only context creates hopefully a positive human relations environment; a what only context
creates a sterile and often a toxic work environment. A
worthplace creates ROIR (Return-on-Integrity-in-Relationships); a workplace creates ROI (Return-on-Investment).
Both dimensions or contexts are absolutely critical. Our
business and MBA schools have often forgotten this dual
focus lesson and have emphasized only ROI to the exclusion and destriment of both employees and the organiza-
