Compare and contrast the following two situations:
a. A company’s lean system stresses teamwork. Employees feel more involved and, therefore, productivity and quality increase at the company. The problem is that workers also experience a loss of individual autonomy.
b. A humanities professor believes that all students want to learn. To encourage students to work together and learn from each other—thereby increasing the involvement, productivity, and the quality of the learning experience—-the professor announces that all students in the class will receive the same grade and that it will be based on the performance of the group.
