¶ … Employer." Consider things changed economic, educational, business environment 1975 forced "Me, Inc."
You Are Your Own Employer
The business environment and the factors that influence it also determine the behavior of societies, companies, and individuals. The modifications in the economic, educational, and social systems have influenced the behavior and relationships between people and their employers. This refers to have people organize their lives and workplace.
Since 1975, the world's economy has significantly developed. This means that the GDP in most countries has increased, allowing them to invest in economic, technological, infrastructure developments. This determined their economies to continue their developments, with important effects on individual level. In other words, this economic development determined an increase in individuals' purchasing power. The fact that they could purchase more, determined them to spend more. The demand for most products and services has significantly increased. The capitalist...
These economic conditions have determined people to focus on their freedom. This refers to their level of dependence on their employers. The fact that people spent more money increased their dependence on their jobs, their salaries, and their employers. Companies that employ these people are aware of their influence on their employees. This creates a distorted relationship between companies and employees. In other words, companies want to exploit this influence by forcing employees to work more, with less money, and not in the best working conditions.

The Internet is full of websites that recommend strategies they can use in order to earn more money and to be happier by working for themselves. In other words, they are induced the idea that people must work for themselves in order to be happy. This means that they are not happy if they work for someone else.

This idea combined with people's unsatisfactory working conditions determines them to think that it is better to become your own boss.
This does not necessarily make it true. In my opinion, most people that think that it is better to be your own boss do not take into considerations the implications of such a situation. It is possible that they do not understand the difficulties of running a business and making it successful. But the fact that they presented ideas of how to do this makes them think that is something that they can do and that would make them happier.
The changes in the business environment since 1975 also create the conditions necessary by people that want to become they own bosses. It is easier now to work from home for yourself. There are numerous jobs that do not require people to work for other companies. Such jobs are in the fields of IT, consulting, and other services. There are certain specialists in different fields that prefer to work as consultants for themselves instead of working for companies that provide them with job stability. Therefore, it is important to determine which situation provides the most important benefits in the case of each person.

Researchers have an occasion to further organizational science and to make research practical by producing information that can impact changing organizational forms and circumstances. Pragmatically, academic researchers are not likely to get access to a company that is going through change unless the practitioners believe the research will be helpful (Gibson & Mohrman, 2001).

Business Ethics When the Truth Takes a Stretching Class Maria Bailey clearly and blatantly misrepresented the size of her start-up business, but shrugged it off saying she knew what she was "capable of doing" and just wanted to show potential clients "what we were going to be," rather than tell them the truth about how fledgling her business actually was at that time.
