ORGANIZATION, PURPOSE, AND VALUES

People (employees and investors) are the strength of the organizations and the leader who integrates this understanding creates an environment where people can use their full potential, feel appreciated and grow in the process. Organizations need to promote leadership that is able to nurture the spirit of each employee in order to create happy and harmonious workplaces. Such a nurturing and liberating environment will trigger social energy, which is not only a sufficient condition for innovation but the precondition for creating collective pride.
