Auf Basis einer pauschalen Einteilung von Menschen in Opfergruppen und Privilegierte wird abgeleitet, wer was wann sagen oder tun darf.

Rudolf Eisler stellte schon vor über 100 Jahren fest: "Die organisierten Massen haben zu allen Zeiten eine wichtige Rolle im Völkerleben gespielt, niemals aber in solchem Maße wie heute. Die unbewusste Wirksamkeit der Massen, die an die Stelle der bewussten Tatkraft der einzelnen tritt, bildet ein wesentliches Kennzeichen der Gegenwart." Eine Masse von Intellektuellen ist nicht besser als eine Masse von Proletariern. Eine Masse ist immer nur Gefühlen und einfachen Parolen zugänglich, niemals der Logik.

Gefühle und Emotionen sind in vielen Unternehmen immer noch ein Tabu. Der Arbeitsalltag zeigt jedoch, dass diese sich nicht ausklammern lassen: Überall wo Menschen gefordert sind, zusammenzuarbeiten, kommen früher oder später Gefühle ins Spiel, ob es uns gefällt oder nicht. Doch das muss kein Problem sein. Im Gegenteil, sagt Vivian Dittmar: Gefühle sind wichtige Beziehungskompetenzen, die wir auch in Arbeitssituationen dringend benötigen. Doch wie schaffen wir es, dass diese in Teams und Besprechungen, in Führungskräften und Mitarbeitern auch als solche zum Tragen kommen? Emotionale Kompetenz ist mehr als nur Teil eines modernen Skillprofils.
