Balancing Command and Control (Discipline) with Organizational Commitment
Every business organization has procedures, rules and regulations that govern its operations. "Employment at will" and "big stick" are factors coming under the command and control of an organization. A dreaded duty of a manager is to discipline an employee when (s)he steps out of line. While I agree that the aspect of discipline has to be there for every organization, it has to be balanced with organizational commitment towards the employee.
However, if individual employees realize that command and control are part of the organizational requirement, but also that the organization respects them and their performance and provides them enough opportunities to grow, that is OK to them.
