Title

In business use the golden rule

Abstract

"Do unto others as you would have them do unto you." It is a little rule often overlooked but one with a big impact. One study after another demonstrates that fairness in procedures, interpersonal treatment, and outcomes is a critical factor influencing a wide range of employee attitudes like job satisfaction and organizational commitment. Our own perception is a big part of whether we think actions are fair, but there are techniques beyond the "I cut, you choose" approach.
