View source for Responsibility on the Part of the Team

The inherent motivation of the team must be intrinsic, skin in the game, earn your own pay. THAT by definition not an Employee, but a Director in the loose sense of the word.

I have strong opinions regarding making people powerful, independent - and above all - RESPONSIBLE - as opposed to continuing those peoples' existence as children taken care of by their Mother/Father - the Employer.

Responsibility means Becoming an Adult. Taking responsibility for one's life.

Our economic life promotes infantile behavior: people working for others, instead of working for their own Autonomy, Mastery, and Purpose - are a continuation of slavery.

Maintainers of the status quo like to talk about 'creating jobs and taxes.'

I question: why employment? Using available technology, it is theoretically possible to produce a modern standard of living with little effort. Quantified? It means the 7 Day Weekend. Or more practically, a 2 hour work day for basic, rest is Pursuit of Autonomy, Mastery, and Purpose. Simple.

So this is why I have a problem with Employees - and I am promoting Partners instead.

Partners work out of their will, not because they are getting paid.

Partners have a deep desire to make a better world - to evolve to freedom.
