From the RMI website:
"...The next Industrial Revolution is already being led by companies that are learning to profit and gain competitive advantage from these four principles. Not only that, their leaders and employees are feeling better about what they do..."

And we all know how important it is to 'feel' better about what we do.

This is not directed at you, ovrtaxt, so please don't take it personally. I think there are components of this that are fine. But I read this statement, and this sounds very much like Jeff Immelt, Socialist GE CEO who is feeding off the government trough, and is looking to have an even bigger part in it with his "Healthymagination" BS:

"...“The economic crisis that’s going on right now doesn’t represent a cycle, it represents a reset. And people that understand that will prosper and people who don’t understand that will get left behind…. When we come out of this fog, this notion that companies need to stand for something and need to be accountable for more than just the money they earn will be profound.”..."Jeff Immelt, CEO GE

Morale is a very real component in the performance of any organization though. I agree that a lot of this translates to psychobabble by the time a bureaucrat gets done with it, but there are lots of people willing to work harder if it’s a labor of love.

Thanks for the respectful debate, by the way!

You’re right. There seems to be a movement of psuedo-capitalist fascism in which companies compete to get government grants.
