The Selfless vs Selfish Scale in Business and Society
The concept of selfless versus selfish in business and society is highlighted through a scale ranging from 100% selfish to 0% selfless, where individuals at different levels exhibit varying behaviors. At 90% selfish, a person is deemed a narcissist, while at 80% selfish, they are considered a solopreneur, successful but limited in duplicating their achievements. The scale progresses to include the categories of a kingmaker, like Elon Musk, who strikes a balance at 70% selfish and 30% selfless, attributing his success to both personal drive and contribution towards others. As the scale shifts towards more selflessness, individuals become valued team members, advisors, or supporters, ultimately leading to detrimental effects on society at high levels of selflessness. The example of Mother Teresa exemplifies how even highly selfless individuals still possess some degree of selfishness, as seen with her 70% selfless and 30% selfish attributes in fighting for others.
