The north wind came first with a cold wind and biting cold, and the pedestrians wrapped their coats tightly instead. The south wind blew slowly, then the wind and sunshine, pedestrians feel warm as spring, and began to unbutton, and then take off the coat. Thus, the south wind was victorious. This parable illustrates the truth that warmth is better than cold. Managers use the “south wind” rule, is to respect and care for subordinates, less bureaucratic, more humane.
