Empowerment through organizational freedom, responsibility and authority

            Empowerment comes in different forms and purposes. An organization needs to be an influence within themselves and externally, by acts of good-faith. Social and economic factors should be considered primarily with these acts.

Organizational Freedom

            All members of the organization should act on their natural free will that is by positive means. An employee is free to do and think anything that will prove beneficial for the organization. For example, an employee in an IT industry should be free to suggest to the top executives his views on how to improve their service.

Responsibility

            All members of the organization are responsible of his and his colleague’s actions. All actions done inside the organization’s boundaries should reflect to all members. For example, an installation of a new hardware in a manufacturing firm should be announced to all members, since that act is all about the organization itself.

Authority

            An organization must not fail to recognize authority. People labeled as an authority must empower his subordinates in good-faith. For example, a manager in an organization must discipline his people accordingly. But he must take ethical considerations in doing so.
