So much of human resource management these days is driven by fear of lawsuits (an
employee suing an employer) that many companies and organizations do not achieve
as much productivity and profitability as they deserve. They spend large sums on
lawyers and strategies to prevent lawsuits. They sometimes retain, rather than terminate,
underperforming employees, for fear that a terminated employee will sue. This diverts
money from company profits and employee wages. Lawyer David A. Robinson and his
wife, human resources professional Esther, have advised employers and thought about
this problem for decades. Is there anything employers can do about this problem? Looking
for answers, David and Esther found some answers in a place they did not expect: the
Bible. They expected the Bible to be on the side of “servants” (employees), not “masters”
(employers). They were pleasantly surprised to and the Bible on the side of employees
AND employers!
This book is written specifically for 2026 and the next few years. In his inaugural address
on January 20, 2025, President Donald Trump said society should be “colorblind and
merit-based.” He added, “As of today, it will henceforth be the official policy of the United
States government that there are only two genders, male and female.” Employers, whether
they approve or disapprove of Trump, should be mindful of those words.
