“Mankind learns from experience and gains knowledge in their evolution as an individual and as a participant in social dynamics. As individuals we bring diversity to the group and as a part of the group we bring functional contributions. We evolve with individual skill sets and this defines our unique role as we participate in situations and begin to mitigate group dilemmas in our evolution as mankind.
Just as we have a need to grow internally as individuals, we also have a group need to develop functionally from the inside. These internal processes benefit most from an internal stimulus or influence rather that outward direction. Outward directives may improve nonintellectual routines, but they do not evolve into progressive functional assets. Outward control restricts or governs performance; whereas, inward influence generates a unique resource that is a living and growing asset to our collective existence. So, to the degree that we force outward controls on our people, they will comply as technical resources that offer finite abilities – but, to the degree that we invest in the internal influence of each individual of our group, they will grow into great functional assets with infinite abilities” (Bishop, 2014).
