An employer has no business with a man's personality. employment is a specific contract calling for a specific performance... any attempt to go beyond that is usurpation. it is immoral as well as an illegal intrusion of privacy. it is abuse of power. an employee owes no "loyalty," he owes no "love" and no "attitudes" - he owes performance and nothing else. .... the task is not to change personality, but to enable a person to achieve and to perform.

Loyalty Attitude Men

More From Peter Drucker

An employer has no business with a man's personality... the task is not to change personality, but to enable a person to achieve and to perform.

I believe that there is something far nobler than loyalty to any particular man. loyalty to the truth as we perceive it - loyalty to our duty as we know it - loyalty to the ideals of our brain and heart - is, to my mind, far greater and far nobler than loyalty to the life of any particular man or god. . . .

So, what exactly is the news-press' unforgivable crime? calling illegal aliens 'illegals' in a headline for a story about illegal aliens descending on california dmvs. a new law went into effect last friday allowing illegal aliens to obtain driver's licenses without proof of lawful residence. the article featured interviews with ecstatic illegal aliens, including one who has been in the country illegally for '22 years.'

Employee loyalty begins with employer loyalty. your employees should know that if they do the job they were hired to do with a reasonable amount of competence and efficiency, you will support them.

See, when i smoked pot it was illegal, but not immoral. now, it is illegal and immoral. the law didn't change, only the morality… that's why you get to go to jail and i don't.

Power properly understood is nothing but the ability to achieve purpose... one of the great problems of history is that the concepts of love and power have usually been contrasted as opposites --- polar opposites --- so that love is identified with a resignation of power, and power with a denial of love... what is needed is a realization that power without love is reckless and abusive, and love without power is sentimental and anemic. power at its best is love implementing the demands of justice, and justice at its best is power correcting everything that stands against love.

If love is in our hearts, every thought, word, and deed can bring about a miracle. because understanding is the very foundation of love, words and actions that emerge from our love are always helpful.

I know what love is. when you find the person you are supposed to love, bells ring and fireworks go off in your head and you can't find the words to speak and you think about him all the time. when you find the person you are supposed to love, you will know by staring deeply into their eyes.

Since true listening involves a setting aside of the self, it also temporarily involves a total acceptance of the others. sensing this acceptance, the speaker will feel less and less vulnerable, and more and more inclined to open up the inner recesses of his or her mind to the listener. as this happens, speaker and listener begin to appreciate each other more and more, and the dance of love is begun again.

One of the stories i love is how gutenberg’s printing press set off this interesting chain reaction, where all of a sudden people across europe noticed for the first time that they were farsighted, and needed spectacles to read books (which they hadn’t really noticed before books became part of everyday life); which then created a market for lens makers, which then created pools of expertise in crafting lenses, which then led people to tinker with those lenses and invent the telescope and microscope, which then revolutionized science in countless ways.
