Extending the circle of safety

Extending the circle of safety to the employees at the very bottom of the pyramid actually creates a safe environment in overall nature. Often times priority is given to the people at the top and those who involve directly in increasing the shareholder's value. It is good for the short term, but miserable in the long run. The people at the bottom of the hierarchy deal with the core of the business. They manufacture the products, interact directly with the customer, respond to the feedback, and know a lot more than actual people at the top. The more care provided to the employees, the better the business will be.

Caring the employees

A company management that is focusing on shareholders value than employees safety and wellness, that might turn to be a disaster. It may bring revenues and profit to to the company in the short term, but in the long term, it kills the company spirit.  People forget what the company is about and its moral values and make them feels like they are not considered as a human, but a machine.

Leadership dilemma

Most of the time the bad performance is imparted on the employees or those who work as a group. With good equipment and working condition, there is still some huge loses. The revenue steeps down and the operational expenses are shooting up. The reason might be with the leadership. The person at the top must be the reason behind such a drastic fall in the profits or the desired outcome. Under him works the mob and he needs to make sure that they are well protected and safe. Safeness doesn't mean it is of external physical threat, it may be the insecurity that they feel inside the work place. By offering them the security, things would be better.
