• W1527219011 abstract "As noted in Kim & Sikula (2003; 2004), there are three types of people in the workplace: people of Necessity, Common people, and Parasites. A person of Necessity is irreplaceable, crucial to the functioning of an organization. The Common person is a worker of average ability and talent who makes no significant difference to the success of an organization. Parasites are detrimental freeloaders, harmful to the functioning of an organization. In the 2004 paper we analyzed the survey responses of 25 students in an MBA Organizational Behavior class, and of 13 working managers, all in the United States. In this paper we replicate our 2004 study in a different cultural setting an MBA Organizational Behavior class in Bangalore, India--and then compare the results. The leading traits and behaviors that characterize the Necessity and Parasite categories, in both data sets, are very similar. Significant differences exist, however, between the data sets when it comes to identifying the leading traits and behaviors that define a Common worker. We conclude by exploring potential explanations for the similarities and differences, based on the respondents’ work experience and cultural background. Introduction Human beings, by nature, are relational creatures. At any given time all people, regardless of their individual differences (e.g., age, gender, ethnic background), assume multiple roles in society, such as spouse, parent, employee, friend, club member, citizen of a city, town, or country, and member of a religious organization. Within each of these roles there is always more than one person involved, from a very small number of members in an institution such as a marriage, to the very large number of members comprising the citizenship of a nation. No matter what type of role a person plays for a group at any given time, however, that person falls into one of three categories: the person of Necessity, the Common person, and the Parasite. The most desirable category is that of Necessity. Without colleagues (or partners) who are Necessities, the group as a whole cannot conduct normal activities. The person of Necessity focuses his/her efforts on achieving the group’s goals, and thus consistently makes valuable contributions to the success of the group. From the group’s perspective, such a person is an enormous asset. The loss felt within the group by the departure of such an individual, consequently, is considerable. Comments made in the workplace, about a person of Necessity, include, “It would be hard to fill his shoes, or she is an excellent person, it’s a shame to lose" @default.
