I really want to agree. On an emotional level, I do agree. It’s important that the entire organization feel they rise or fall together, as a team, and this should impact leadership more heavily than the rank and file.
But on the other, as you note, it’s just a symbolic thing. As such, a large part of me feels, do we really benefit as a society for those increasing even more the extent to which virtue signaling is institutionalized?
So I agree in spirit, but worry that this is an under appreciated long term risk to business culture specifically, and society more generally. “Symbolic” on some level really just translates to “BS” and we have more than enough of that already.
- benatkin 4y agoThis is appropriate use of the term "virtue signaling" that would go well in a textbook for a university course that deals with the concept.
