Powerful, you agree, but the question is, what will it take an
organization to turn a service transaction into a memorable
experience, what will it take, to get the interests of
everyone behind a shared vision, what will it take to build a
highly participatory work environment, what will it take, to get
people to think like owners.
WORKPLACE OWNERSHIP
Drawing largely from the writings of Kevin and Jackie Freiberg,
owners think differently from non owners because ownership
is a state of the mind. It’s about caring, about becoming fully
engaged in the active pursuit of organizational objectives. For
example, owners are more apt to worry about how their actions
are being perceived by their superiors. Owners focus on the
business results of their actions, regardless of who’s
watching. Non owners maybe more inclined to protect
functional areas, pursue self interest, and approach the
business from a parochial point of view.
