Comments on: Boss Basics: How NOT to Publicly Fire Someone http://workforce.com/wpmu/bizmgmt/2008/10/01/how-not_to_publicly_fire-someone/ All about the issues that arise when workforce issues converge with business management.

Sad that it seems to take a brute mentality to make a lot of money. Sad how we who value money less then they, must submit to the bullying in order to keep our jobs and take care of our families. Only those who nurture the bully have any hope of succeeding, but sell their souls in the process. This makes me think of companies in Chile that failed. When the workers moved in and started running the factories by committee they became profitably again because their was no executive sucking up the capital. Maybe in the coming collapse of capitalism as we know it--we can begin to take over our organizations and run them democratically. There are many times when it was obvious that the companies for which I work would have been able to make greater progress if the owner woulr get out of the way. Now it appears that he is going to run the company into the ground and take his loyal staff with him. Funny (not) how money makes people behave like brutes.

Yes, we learn much from our mistakes, only if we are intended to. This is a smart way to meet the workplace challenges. Inability to get the job done is the most obvious reason that can fire any employee. But all this have to be done in a dignified manner. Interesting post!
