It was shown that people were more likely to obey others if they recognise their authority as morally right. Conclusion: In conclusion to this essay, I have shown that social influence without doubt makes us behave in a manner that is inconsistent with our own beliefs and values. People will always be influenced against what they may believe or value in fear of not being accepted by others. In terms of conformity and obedience, there is endless evidence which says that people are more than willing to go against what they think is right because they believe authority over themselves or in order to fit in with society and be accepted.

An exchange of ideas can be beneficial for everyone involved. A positive approach: although a solution is not always obvious, with some effort you will be able to find an appropriate alternative. Be realistic: by setting attainable goals and not expecting the impossible from yourself, you can avoid the pitfalls of disappointment. You must also learn that there will be situations over which you can exert only indirect control. You cannot achieve absolute control: by trying to control everything in your life you will only be wasting valuable energy and effort.
When defining goals, it is important to make sure that these goals are right for you, considering the factors around you. You should make sure that these goals are not only feasible and realistic, but also immediately actionable. Setting the right goals will actually make it easy to remember them and always keep them in mind. Two other important factors to be put into consideration are your personality and the nature of the goal you’re pursuing. Most times, people make the mistake of choosing goals because they saw these goals being achieved by others without putting in mind the approach and mindset that the other person actually put into achieving that goal.
if the purpose is the foundation of the company with its employees, then the trust of the consumers will follow. Consumer consciousness has shifted from what product is being offered and how it will benefit the consumer to how the product was made and how it affects consumers as whole, this means that consumers are aware that the choices they make about brands will the affect the choices of other consumers. Brands with an authentic approach to brand purpose, can expect to increase their brands to be the most valuable ones. An authentic brand will be ineffective if it's not communicated to the outside world accordingly, the purpose being a brand has to manifest itself internally, and form part of the culture of the organisation, so that the
Once that daunting task is complete, then it is critical to outline social contracts between all those who will be interacting within that society. It is clear that there are endless possibilities when it comes to societies but that is what makes the human population so
It is not always necessary to reward the behavior of the people. Rewarding means give to the customers a false motivation for do something. In fact in this cases the customer’s motivation would be: I’m doing this because I want to receive a reward. This means that people, once that receive the reward, will not keep the principles for long time, but they would forgot everything. With the right motivation, without using particular rewards, people will always keep in mind what is the purpose of the activity, the importance of circular
They should also reward more often their employees instead of punishing them. Moreover, the managers should not reprimand the creativity of their employees by imposing them tremendous amount of paper work every time they want to present a new idea. In order, to help your employees to bring new ideas, you have to instore a creative environment where the employees will not be discouraged by the work they have to do just to present a new algorithm for example. The employees should also see the action of the top management as an example of good behaviour. [1] The only way that this change would be successful, is by creating an ethical organizational culture.
Despite all this, it all made sense, it would waste time to be too vocal about some of these things (time being something our culture values a lot), make the person sound spiteful or disagreeable, and avoiding the issue and going for a “proper” response makes us seem more polite and pleasant. We all know there is a consequence for our actions; when addressing someone with authority or otherwise. Wherever we are, we are trying to gain something and the best way to succeed on our personal goals is to follow the system in place (like telling a teacher made up plans to not admit lack of preparation or betray his expectations). It is subconsciously understood that certain actions or lack of them will get you to be disliked, criticized or ostracized. As spoken of in class the way people interact seems to follow a code taken from our culture and history, our way of thinking and values all overlap in our exchanges and we make sure not to overstep any boundaries and adhere to the hierarchy of our groups and maintains order and coherence, and to that end, we act as it is expected of
Stimulate competition with other groups/companies. They should also give rewards to the group rather than to individual members. Organization can should give their employees a regular schedule that they will need to stick to in order to get all of their work done and encourage creativity by promoting new ideas with these employees and giving them more responsibilities which will be initially stop them worrying about what other peers are doing. Some employees will come to work with a bad attitude every
This knowledge could have a positive influence on my values by understanding that everyone is different and allowing to be more open minded. My attitude towards others should be the same no matter who one is. In my assessment it stated that the author was “popular” with that comes great power and the author needs to use that power to allow everyone to be a part of something and not excluding just because they are different. Approaching tasks as a new leader may be a bit scary at first, but she believes leading by example is the best
