X Reminds me of Theory X

Some managers follow Theory X in managing people.

Theory X assumes that people dislike work and must be coerced, controlled, and directed toward organizational goals. Furthermore, most people prefer to be treated this way, so they can avoid responsibility.
Douglas McGregor pointed out the Theory X and proposed that managers must use Theory Y to get better results.
