The Participation Contract

Abstract

Warr and Wall, when examining participation in decision making, conclude that much of the research has been devoted to subordinate attitudes to participation with little attention being focused on the well‐being of the manager. This is often threatened by increasing employee influence. They conclude: “Future progress may be greater if research shows a simultaneous concern with both parties' wants and with practical experiments into their reconciliation.”
