Mary Barnett Gilson quotes about
democracy oratory way
To find ways of practicing democracy, not ways of orating about it, is our great problem.
work annoyed wages
... a worker was seldom so much annoyed by what he got as by what he got in relation to his fellow workers.
work organization surveillance
Unless a group of workers know their work is under surveillance, that they are being rated as fairly as human beings, with the fallibility that goes with human judgment, can rate them, and that at least an attempt is made to measure their worth to an organization in relative terms, they are likely to sink back on length of service as the sole reason for retention and promotion.
leadership respect self
... the self respect of individuals ought to make them demand of their leaders conformity with an agreed-upon code of ethics and moral conduct.
