A person or institution must be honorable and possess integrity to gain my respect. Considering some professions in order of respect, doctor, teacher, scientist, entrepreneur, military people, clergy.
Some I have no respect for include, politician, sports figures, journalists, movie stars, and lawyers.
Many of us have known people with a need to control others. Do you agree the best way to control others is to first gain their respect because then they are likely to voluntarily want to follow?
In my work, my style is to respect coworkers, showing them they are fortunate to work for me, acting as a boss who controls through respect rather than force?
Can you name a person or institution that you truly respect?
