In the postmodern world of today there is much conversation about individual rights and entitlements. A common mantra is "What's in it for me?" This narcissistic attitude seems to be ubiquitous. No matter where I travel or whom I talk with, there is the common worldview of self-centered entitlement. Living by faith in the workplace is about discerning and doing the will of God both individually and organizationally. The best workers and organizations are those who are focused not on their rights, but on their responsibilities to serve their Creator. Relative to our Creator, we have no rights. Workers and managers must be diligent to increase their faith by increasingly taking on the role of unworthy servants who are humble before the Master, submitted to the Master, and dutifully do the will of the Master. Only when workers and organizations function as unworthy servants will they deliver world-class value propositions.
