Notes:
Raises the question why society relies on ranking and grading fromthe first day of school, through the educational system, into theworking environment. Goes on to discuss the effects of extrinsic forceson intrinsic attributes and describes and assesses the concerns/views oftheorists such as Deming, Latzko and Bramham. Ranking affects us allthroughout the whole western world. Indeed it is pervasive throughoutthe world. Ranking is a fundamental cornerstone of the present educationsystem and is being further developed within organizations by means suchas performance appraisal, target setting, merit system, etc. Suggeststhat ranking should be replaced by co-operation and that recognition ofthe need to change is required. This may require government legislation.It also has to be encouraged by those who develop education and trainingpolicies.
