Employee loyalty suffering, but trust is still possible

Is loyalty in the workplace dead?

Just recently, Lynda Gratton, a workplace expert, proclaimed that it was. In The Financial Times, she said that it had been "killed off through shortening contracts, outsourcing, automation and multiple careers."

It's sad if this sterling virtue is now out of place in the business world. But the situation may be more complicated. Depending on how you define it, loyalty may not be dead, but is just playing out differently.
