Famous quotes containing the word organization:

    “Unless a group of workers know their work is under surveillance, that they are being rated as fairly as human beings, with the fallibility that goes with human judgment, can rate them, and that at least an attempt is made to measure their worth to an organization in relative terms, they are likely to sink back on length of service as the sole reason for retention and promotion.”
    —Mary Barnett Gilson (1877–?)

    “It is essential that there should be organization of labor. This is an era of organization. Capital organizes and therefore labor must organize.”
    —Theodore Roosevelt (1858–1919)

    “Democracy means the organization of society for the benefit and at the expense of everybody indiscriminately and not for the benefit of a privileged class.”
    —George Bernard Shaw (1856–1950)
