In item 5 “Drive Out Fear”, it was raised by Dr. Edwards Deming and recorded in his 14 points. Thus, organization built the culture of continuous improvement.

Dr. Mark Lee quoted Jack Welch (former CEO, GE) that “Strong managers who make tough decisions to cut jobs provide the only true job security in today’s world”. After that your subordinate’s dignity could be preserved from true job security.
