Rosen, R. H. (2008).  Just Enough Anxiety: the hidden driver of business success.
"Compassionate leaders assume goodwill. They respect and see the good in others, and in themselves. They honor people's feelings as true for them. And they try to minimize people's pain and fear while maximizing their sense of well-being. In the words of George Washington Carver: 'How far you go in life depends on your being tender with the young, compassionate with the aged, sympathetic with the striving, and tolerant of the weak and strong. Because someday in life you will have been all of these.'" (p. 84)
Ressler, C., & Thompson J. (2008).  Why Work Sucks and How to Fix It: No Schedules, No Meetings, No Joke–the Simple Change That Can Make Your Job Terrific.
"You're stuck in a cube with a desktop computer and a phone with a cord so you can be there in person should your manager walk over to check up on whether or not you're working. The game becomes looking busy instead of working hard and solving problems and contributing. It's a game no one wins. You lose your freedom, your motivation, your soul, and in exchange for control over your life, your company gets little more than a show of work." (p. 28)
2012
Roberts, W. (2012).  Victory Secrets of Attila the Hun. 159. Abstract
"An organization's worst enemies are seldom external. Rather, the most deadly and damaging threats come from those who are so driven toward power that their political maneuvering can destroy the very group in which they seek authority." (p. 44)
