Human Nature
This value orientation has to do with how humans are perceived: basically Good, basically Evil, Neutral, or a Mixture of Good and Evil. If one has a perception that humans are basically Evil, there is a lack of trust. At work, people would need to be heavily monitored and disciplined. If one believes that people are basically Good, trust in team members would be high, even in the early stages of team formation. Probably the most common response for most cultures is that humans are basically a Mixture of Good and Evil.
