This is a tricky subject
because the mixture of religious practices and business, society, the
government or school is practically forbidden. Those who are Christians,
Catholics or another religious belief that deals with the bible, may want to
have a workplace or work in place that has the bible implemented in its
practices. This doesn’t have to mean that there should be a bible study every
Thursday, but it does mean you can take from the bible and apply it to the
workplace.
For instance, the bible
teaches kindness, forgiveness and love. If you’re a co-worker or owner of a
business, you can spread kindness throughout the workplace to your customers
and the people you work with. You should also have meetings that teach and
enforce kindness -- there should be zero tolerance for any form of cruelty;
verbally or physically. Grudges should never be in the workplace; the act of
forgiveness should be applied to avoid confrontations and hostile work
environments. To err is human, to forgive is divine. Showing love is always
best, whether you’re spiritual or not.
The bible teaches a lot about
wisdom, especially in Proverbs, which was written by Solomon, the wisest man to
ever live. Within it you will see that it talks about integrity, having bad
attitudes and making amends. These are all great topics to discuss in a work
environment. Keeping the integrity of all individuals involved is important for
the integrity of the business. No one should come to the workplace with bad attitudes;
if there is a problem in the workplace, there should be an open door policy
that allows the workers to speak with someone that may be able to fix the
problem. If any of the co-workers are on bad terms, it is important to make
amends to avoid further problems.
A learning environment is a
smart environment. By showing that it is good to continuously learn from wise
mentors will make for wise students. Being prudent is essential for the
functionality of any business. Fools are hardly successful, unless by accident.
Although you can lead a horse to the water, you can’t make it drink, but you
can encourage these practices (in disguise because it may be offensive to
individuals that come from different cultures) by rewarding those who are the
most virtuous. To the victor goes the spoils.
Nothing pushes people to work
harder at goals than a additional vacation days or even a raise; whatever the
business can offer. Sometimes teaching old dogs new tricks isn’t as impossible
as many may think.
