Of Human Relations

Of Human Relations
Much of the success in any field depends on development of healthy human relations between the concerned parties. In education it is relation between student and teacher, in business employer and employee, supplier and customer, in family members.
Though the real value and quality of exchange of information or material object should generally decide in success of transaction, but it is observed to play a minor role as compared to willingness of supplier and acceptability of taker which depend on mutual trust. If that trust is lacking, it affects the transaction either in distortion of perception or end of transaction.

On the other hand if there is full trust, any lacuna in transacting element gets ignored. If the element does not meet the specifications transaction prompts to give another opportunity, more time or resources or change the specification requirements. If the transaction is beneficial to both parties, there is effort by both parties to enhance scope or frequency of such transaction. This builds a sustainable relationship.

Ego and Envy

Ego comes with envy. Freedom fosters individual ego, plants envy. Freedom disrupts organization. Brothers, colleagues, neighbors who, if join hands, can increase strength nd wealth but envy keeps them separate. Same is the case of organizations. Every free individual or organization tries to maintain it’s separate identity, strives to grow, competes with others nearby.

Building groups of individuals or merging or coming together of different organizations has to overcome this freedom induced ego and envy. This is possible if the scope of environment is widened, individuals have to compete with organization or small organizations have to compete with big organizations. Development of terms of organization need to be developed which will guarantee protection of individual interests and assure additional benefits by association. Globalization has accelerated the process of amalgamation and mergers due to exactly this reason.
