Abstract

As investigative keys to aspects of social standing and perhaps more importantly, social understanding, we draw upon the works of Sigmund Freud, Herbert Marcuse, Burkhard Sievers, Douglas LaBier and others, to examine the emotional fallout and clinical challenges organisations should confront as a result of a society that embraces competition as its economic driver.
