Part of the problem comes from the standards companies adopt for production workers. "Somehow, somewhere, our engineers determine what is a good pace for our production," Teplitz said. "As a worker, you know that if you perform at a certain standard, it will be acceptable." There exists, though, little incentive to work at a more effective clip. Monetary and peer recognition are rare, particularly for production employees. "You look around at your fellow workers and wonder why you should wor~ any h!irder than what the management thinks is a typical standard," Tephtz said. And, often whether workers plan it or not, they subconsciously slow down their pace to match that of slower co-workers Teplitz is cautious not to lay too much of the blame on management , although he does believe that some managers have failed to pick up constructive suggestions offered by underlings. "Management tends to listen, nod in agreement and then not implement these suggestions," he said. "Workers become frustrated, then they stop making suggestions. All of a sudden we're back to the 'we/they' syndrome." Teplitz fears that if lines continue to be drawn between management and workers, it will result in a total service economy in the United States. He insists that workers probably have more to give ,than management expects. ~f them. Some employees have capacity to improve their productivity more than others, he claims. "We shouldn't put up a barrier to stop these people," he said. "W should recognize their abilities and give them the incentives to work ,harder." · lnc_:entives and tiered standards may help increase productivity, but Tephtz cautions not to use a carrot-and-stick approach in which the employee never quite catches up with the carrot. Help them do better but don't punish them if they don't, he says. ' "Workers want to believe they are part of the organiz.ation,7 at they're not just another machine," he said.

There is a valuable lesson to be learned from high-tech industries if American business would just look closely and take notes. ' High-tech businesses are the ones that have been fostered on insprration and built on hope. They are the ones that can boast a hot product one day and an obsolete business the next. And, they are the ones that see a future. Charles!· Teplitz, a manage~ent professor at the U11~~ Diego, believes that the product!Vlty problems of American business are r~tea iiillle worker/employer relations that have evolved out of its past. Most compames seem to reflect on the past," Teplitz said. "High- tech companies look to the future . High-tech companies don't have the people who were there 30 years ago ... there is no 30 years ago for then." fbe producti_vity of Am~~can industry has long been a source of concern for busmess and poht1cal leaders. Over the past few years minor domestic gains in productivity have been overshadowed by the ieapmg advances of foreign competition. · "High-tech businesse~. are ~sed ~o c,~ange and can make adjustments faster than most others, Tephtz srud. They h!'ve more competition and they h~ve to find_ a way to become superior to their competitors if they are going to survive." The d?m~stic steel and auto industries are two that have been jolted to the realizal!on that they are competing on a worldwide scale "We're StaT!il:'g ~o find ourselves in the position that unles~ we think about producttvtty improvement today, the viability of our producers will be in trouble," he said. "U.S. industry has had a reputation for innovation. I think we're still o~ the OJ?inion that change will come over time and the United States will sl!II be tn the leadership. I don't think we can think about that any longer." A unified spirit is necessary for American companies to get more out
