This doesn’t permit the emergence of a team work logic for the joint production of the common good (well-being). The systemic reflexivity is blocked, the actors reproduce antiquated operational logics, the results are fragmented and these phenomena inhibit the virtuous circle that would allow corporate welfare measures to produce positive effects on the organisation, on the employees’ lives and on the territory governance
