Abstract
The following concepts are being challenged: That organizations are efficient, well-managed, and intelligent: that if one is to believe in any sort of authority, one must first accept the notion that it truly knows best and that it is not only competent, but well-intentioned; that organizations exist for the benefit of their employees and customers; that organizations reward dedication, competence, and performance: that if the organization is to grow it needs loyal sacrificing people; that organizations are dynamic and receptive to change; that if the employee is discouraged, do not worry, for tomorrow will be better; that to be useful to the company, one's perspective must be consistent with the reality of the company.
This paper looks at the following questions: Where should the employee's loyalty be? How does a company provide an atmosphere conducive to maximum contribution by its people without sacrifice of personal satisfaction in their work?
Sincere appreciation is extended to Dr. S. S. Thomas of the Industrial Engineering Department for his constructive criticisms and guidance throughout this project.
