The Matthew Effect (principle, law) is social phenomenon whereby those who have, get more and those who have not get less. It appears to be a universal truth which applies to almost anything, and while the output of its effects are clear, its cause can be less so. Whenever inequality happens, one school of thought says that it is because one group is oppressing the other group. This group tends to view everything through the simplistic prison of oppressors and the oppressed. To them, the reasons for something happening is always because some one or group has decided to oppress and exploit another group. While this thinking is virtuous, it has a fundamental obvious flaw in that sometimes the reasons things happen is not because one person or group is oppressing another, but because of natural laws of nature.

Keypoint

Adopt this component by...

Do not let the past, unduly affect the future.

C-Suite: Mandate that those receiving acolades or critism should not receive them because of previous accolades or criticism.

Questions to ponder...

Do people in your Enterprise who receive praise and accoldaes, seem to be getting more of their fair share?

Do people in your Enterprise who receive criticism and discipline, seem to be getting more of their fair share?

Can you think of examples where this has happened in the past?

Who were they? What was the impact? Why do you think they acted in this way?

What needs to change to reduce the likelihood of it happening in the future?

Who needs to drive that change?
