Changing others with your higher view(ing) of them...


How you treat and envision others has a significant effect on how they behave.  Try it with your significant other, your family members and anyone you associate with.  It will change their lives.
“In Pygmalion in ManagementJ. Sterling Livingston writes,
Some managers always treat their subordinates in a way that leads to superior performance.But most … unintentionally treat their subordinates in a way that leads to lower performance than they are capable of achieving. The way managers treat their subordinates is subtly influenced by what they expect of them. If manager’s expectations are high, productivity is likely to be excellent. If their expectations are low, productivity is likely to be poor. It is as though there were a law that caused subordinates’ performance to rise or fall to meet managers’ expectations.”
