Answer:

short-termism

Is the acting upon short term vision of the needs and problems that must be addressed. It is a problem because the vision that is important is the Long path vision.

What is “longpath” and why did Wallach develop the concept?

Is a concept that combines long term vision and goal oriented. Wallach develop that concept as he did not find a term that frame what is intended in the long run that was goal oriented.

Briefly discuss each of the three ways of thinking that Wallach describes.

Transgenerational thinking: Thinking the impact of your actions in the future generations to come.

Futures thinking: The future is not related only with better technology but with how will human relationships, moral, art and feelings like compassion will evolve.

Telos thinking: This is an invitation to think having in mind what is the "ultimate aim" of our actions as little of they might be. It is important to raise the question: how this action that I am doing now will impact or change the future in 20,50 or 100 years to come.

How does Wallach relate the future to a part of speech?

Wallach make a link between Thomas Khun quote: “People don’t shift unless they have a vision of what it is they’re shifting to.” an Martin Luther King Speech of "I Have a Dream" he says that that speech is successful as it shows what is the vision of what a dream must looks like

Shkiper50 [21]

Answer:

The correct answer is: Most people wish to avoid responsibility, have little ambition, and want security.

Explanation:

This type of management thinking responds to the early theories of management, more especially to the classical theories of organization. These theories were devoted to the superior's authority, objectives, rules and, economic activities. They organized men and materials for achieving objectives for their benefits, characterized by a large and complex atmosphere with impersonal detachment from human resources.

The motivation of workers were purely by bonus and monetary benefits. The general idea was that workers were inspired to perform the job if they are paid according to their contributions. Workers are considered economic beings. Man was considered a rational and not an emotional being. It assumes that man wants only money, and this assumption provides the maximum opportunity to exploit employees. The idea that people avoid responsibility is due to the hierarchy and chain of command, the responsibility of the work rests on the superior.
