You are a plant manager at a manufacturing company. The Relationship between your management team and factory workers is generally harmonious. You and the other managers have worked your way up through the company so you understand the demands of your workers' jobs, and you have done your best to create a culture of togetherness at the plant.

While in the break room one afternoon, you find out that one of the line workers, Mary Chan, has started talking to other employees about unionizing the factory. She wants to start an organizing committee to discuss labor issues at the plant and determine how the plant's workers could start or join a union. You have nothing against unions but don't understand why one would be necessary at your plant. You are worried that having a union would create a lot of tension in the plant and create a more adversarial environment, ultimately resulting in lower productivity and profits.

You feel disappointed because everyone seemed so happy. You are thinking about inviting Mary out to lunch to dissuade her from her union effort. Should you do this? If so, what should you say to Mary?
