Middle managers are often much-maligned individuals who are seen as doing little but push paper around and try and make themselves as important as possible. Of course, the reality is somewhat different, with middle managers playing a crucial role in things like innovation , idea management , ethics , and so on.

The Pride Paradox

Michael Lee Stallard

SEPTEMBER 22, 2010

Values such as work ethic, excellence and open-mindedness can be cultivated with practice. Some leaders who do this fail to develop what is arguably the most important character value: humility. Humility is not easily developed when you have wealth, power and/or status. It’s especially difficult to develop humility without the help of others.

I like this definition. It is consistent with our research where we heard respondents consistently use the terms “connect&# or “feel connected&# to describe the emotions they experience in relation to their organization’s identity, the people they work with and their day-to-day work. why is everyone smiling?

I’ve also noticed that the more a company stresses its ethical policies…the more ethical problems it seems to have. Connection + Contract has the benefit of building trust that comes from developing a connection while also bringing greater clarity of terms that will maximize a meeting of the minds and expectations.
