Say “Love” in this day and age and what comes to the hearer’s mind is spelt “S-E-X<\/strong>“. Come on, now, surely we have better minds than that. Still, it does seem to be so, from all I have been observing. “Sex” is a subset of what we understand as “Love”. “Love” encompasses quite a few things as well, and it works both ways, for Bosses and for “Bossees.”<\/span><\/p>\n <\/a><\/span><\/p>\n You can honour\u00a0some people without loving them, but you can’t love\u00a0\u00a0people\u00a0without giving them due\u00a0honour. Bosses need to honour their people because inside each warm body on your rolls, there is a person. That is why I have come to detest the term “Human Capital” because it dehumanizes people. “Bossees” need to honour their Bosses because of who they are, their position, their seniority and because they trusted you enough to give you the job you now have. Bosses, believe it or not, actually want you to succeed at your jobs and to grow as people. Bosses actually love it when you take daring initiative. They are not upset because you fail. They will be upset if you fail to be diligent, and if you fail to be creative and decisive and try new things in the spirit improving things for\u00a0all stakeholders, not just from the employee point of view. Yes, we need to honour each other much more than what is happening in the workplace right now!<\/span><\/p>\nHonour.<\/span><\/strong><\/span><\/h1>\n
