4. Organizational Total Rewards.

In the closing paragraph of this tragic story (see available links above), Zigarelli (2008) writes, I left that place shaken, thinking about the power each one of us has to affect the lives of our co-workers (p. 298). What is within your power to affect the life of another co-worker(s) a good worker who is poor?
7. Biblical Perspective. Answer the question: From a biblical perspective, do managers have a responsibility to ensure that their employees are not in poverty? Support your response with at least five (5) biblical passages (at least two from a biblical book other than Proverbs which was part of our Faith & Learning in this course).
