- Jun Kuikei Group work without non-constructive people is more efficient because each member shares roles and there is no split loss of work. (Constructive, because they are in the same place but split into independent work.) If someone is not constructive, it is more efficient to do it alone. By the way, constructiveness has nothing to do with how smart you are, and we don’t need people who are clever little critics and can take the initiative without much learning.
Nishio Hirokazu How can we improve constructiveness?
Jun KUIKEI: Generally, people who are not constructive are those who have high desire for approval but low ability in the area they want to be recognized in, and who neglect to make efforts in that area, or those who are in an undeserved position but do not want to be exposed as undeserving of that position, and have incentives to shortcut their way to prominence or to delay. I think it’s important to destroy the incentive to try to stand out or to delay.
Nishio Hirokazu Very specific! I’ll make a note of it 📝.
keywordization - Short-term attention acquisition - delaying tactics - Unworthy position - lack of effort
