The way we humans organise ourselves is with hierarchies of organisation – lots of them. They all boil down to a few people in charge and most people not in charge.
Hierarchies of organisation help societies to function. But they have nothing about human value. There are no hierarchies of humanity. It’s sad that lots of people act like there are. You don’t have to.
At work, your boss deserves the same respect as the cleaner, the same respect as you. Yes, you have to do what your boss says. But that’s a function of organisation, not of value.
Recognising everyone’s equality of human value helps me with at least three things at work.
Not being intimidated by a people with a higher rank or larger pay packet.
Treating my own contributions with value.
(Possibly my favourite) not getting sucked into office politics.
