How do you make a win-win situation out of win-lose training?
The bottom line is the most important thing in running a business
because otherwise you are not in business long, however over the years
that seems to have become the only thing. All the rest has become lip
service*.
*Since it is a slang term I will define it for those whose native
language is not english, "giving lip service" is saying you do
something, but not actually doing it --see "customer service".

I wish it was a worldwide auction. I'd bid, just to reaffirm good ebay
behaviour.
I had this interesting discussion the other week about ebay. Bidding
(and winning) in good faith for an ebay auction (and I presume selling
as well) has to be an overall economic benefit above and beyond the
immediate goods/service gained, because it makes other people trust the
"system" with each successful auction. It must add to the social
capital. So even if you are burned once in a while, giving up on the
trust altogether has a lot more bad implications than just saving
oneself from the odd dodgy brother.
Now how can this be shoehorned into MBA business practices???
