stanford, famous university near the city of san francisco, california, an old, popular and influential university with a list of famous graduates. i'm larry page, i'm co-founder and a ceo of google. i was at stanford from 1995 through 98. studied computer science, so was in the phd program there at stanford. i did not quite graduate. i'm sergey britton. i'm uh from google, and uh, prior to that, i was a ph.d. student at stanford. all these features make the annual graduation ceremony of this university more special than other universities. of course, there are more significant instances of...
4:05 am
among these special ceremonies, instances such as the 2005 graduation ceremony. stamford had a special guest that year, guest who did not graduate from any university, but he was invited to say important things to the students as an unofficial graduate from the world outside of college. it now gives me great pleasure to introduce this year's commencement speaker, steve jobs, the chief executive officer and co-founder of apple and pixar animation studios. in those years, everyone knew steve jobs with
4:06 am
apple incorporated and pixar, a man who was able to become one of the most powerful people in the field of technology within two decades. now he was a standing in front of the stanford graduates to tell them about his life course. jobs started his speech with three stories, although it was later revealed that the text of his speech. was written with the help of someone else, everyone was impressed that day. the text of the speech was simple. jobs told his life story, the story of co-founding apple, and the hardships he endered along the way. he constantly used second person pronouns. he directly addressed the audience at the ceremony so that his words were intimate and tangible. these...
4:07 am
language arrangements were used to encourage stanford graduates to work. jobs talked about work and pleasure. he said, find something you like. he emphasized that finding a job is like finding life partner, and true satisfaction means having interest in your job. he said all these things to reach an important sentence. it was easy for jobs to say this sentence, but it seemed a little strange for the audience to hear it. some of them wanted to know more about its meaning. i'm convinced that the only thing. that kept me going was that loved what i did. you've got to find what you love, and that is as true for work as it is for your lovers. your work is going to fill a large part of your life, and the only way to be truly satisfied is to do what you believe is great work, and the only way to do great work is to love what
4:08 am
you do. if you haven't found it yet, keep looking and don't settle. as with all matters the heart, you'll know when you find it, and like any great relationship, it just..." it's better and better as the years roll on, so keep looking, don't settle. do what you love. it was a seemingly simple sentence. this sentence came out of job's mouth, but it... didn't seem like it came to his mind for the first time, some say that this sentence was first odered by confishes, some believe that forans for rable wrote it. anyway, this sentence is heard lot nowadays, almost everywhere, wherever there is talk
4:09 am
about work, there is someone who remembers this saying, just with the same words that jobs used to say. he was trying to say that jobs are generally of two types: the first type is favorite and creativity oriented jobs, and the second type is repetitive and full of routine jobs. jobs define choosing a job not only for income, but also for interest in it. he said that the second type jobs should be neglected even if it is needed. by the society, his famous sentence included motivational and inspiring words. the audience of this sentence had to decide what to enjoy and then choose it as a job. with this slogan, it seemed that all problems
4:10 am
would be solved, both the apprehension of employees and the concern of the employers. if an employee had chosen a job based on jobs wards. he or she would have done it with pleasure. on the other hand, the employer was completely satisfied with the result of his or her employees work. of course, this slogan was more important for the employers than for the employees, mechanism that was not rooted in the words of apple's co-founder, but in history. i believe the mistake that lot of people make when they think about corporate. the they think you corporations are like us. general electric is kind old man with lots of stories. nike, young, energetic, microsoft, aggressive, mcdonald's, young, outgoing,
4:11 am
enthusiastic, monsanto, immaculately dressed, disney, goofy, the body shop, um, deceptive. lovely, do you know what the body shop is? no, they think they have feelings, they have politics, they have belief systems, they really only have one thing, the bottom line, how to make as much money as they can in any given quarter, that's it, of course they make a profit, and it's a good thing, that's the incentive that makes capitalism work, to give us more of the things that we need, that's the incentive that other economic systems lack. the root cause of this attitude could be traced back to the beginning of the 20th century and the german sociologist max weber. webber considered work as a spiritual
4:12 am
profession and something beyond material issues. but his opinion about work was only the starting point. in the middle of the 20th century, an american psychologist indirectly completed weber's ideas. abraham did extensive research on human needs, the basis of his work was to examine the mechanism of the mind against external phenomena. researches that were finally published in the 40s were called moslo's hierarchy of needs. moslow classified human needs. according to him, the most basic human needs were biological needs such as food, clothing and housing: after that, security needs such as
4:13 am
the need for health, the need for a job and the need for psychological protection, mazlo also called the third level social needs, the need to be social, the need to make friends and build relationships with others, the fourth level was nothing but the need for respect, issues such as success and self-esteem. of course, there was a fifth case in his research. maslow used to say that the fifth level of human needs and the highest of them is the need for self-actualization, a phenomena such as the emergence of creativity and the transformation of man into what he should become. the hierarchy proposed by moslo was later known as mozlow's pyramid. this pyramid. could be used anywhere related to human needs including environment. like
4:14 am
webber, moslo said that human motivations for work cannot be limited to financial issues only. he emphasized that the main goal of human being to work is satisfy these needs and top of that the fifth. need, that is self-actualization. the importance of muslow's theory lies in the detailed description of the work process, a process that could be useful for company owners, governments and other theorists. very soon, this theory permeated the business environment and caused the traditional ways of dealing with employees to change. now, satisfying employees. and encouraging them to work better was not related to salary increase, it was only enough to provide
4:15 am
conditions for employees to feel useful, they feel they're doing something important, it was enough for them to feel that they're working for themselves, they work because they mentally need it. what happened at the end of the 20th? tree was simple, moslo's pyramid became the basis for the capitalist economy. that is why another american psychologist said at the same time, companies should not think about more benefits for employees. more benefits only make the employees behave as if you owe them and have no effect on their performance. now, if someone... complains about the unfavorable working conditions from the employers, the
4:16 am
answer would be one thing, mazlow's pyramid, the pyramid that said that the employee's complaint is related not to meeting their own needs, not the salary, benefits and the conditions of the workplace. corporations are artificial creations, you might say they're monsters. to devour as much profits as possible uh anyone's expense. i think of a whale, gentle, big fish, which could swallow you in instant. dr. frankenstein's creation has overwhelmed and overpowered him as the corporate form has done with us.
4:17 am
of course, the change in the business environment was not only a change in attitude, now more things needed to be changed, things like the physical. working environment. to realize this goal, the presence of architects was needed. architects who can design suitable environment with new changes. the traditional offices were full of walls. everyone was locked in a corner to be busy with their work. the presence of windows
4:18 am
was not very important and the amenities of the environment were not considered. a priority, but the new architects had new ideas to change this situation. the new way of working required to review the traditional processes in the workplace. gradually, open plants showed up in the design of office buildings. the walls were removed and replaced by large windows, the ceilings became higher and the allocated space for each person increased. on the other hand, light was an important element for an up. the design of windows became important and a fundamental revolution took place in the interior architecture of office buildings. office furniture was designed. group discs entered the market for more communication and
4:19 am
different spaces for employees who did not like working behind the desk became fashionable. now it was not strange to have slide in a big company, also a game room in a research company. all these changes were made to create a dynamic workplace. the workplace can meet some of the needs of employees. they'll be always available and the work environment becomes their home. the new architecture made work communication. and wider so that employees could constantly go from one meeting to another and be immersed in their work, but these changes were not all that happened, the new way of working had other aspects. dynamics in the workplace was not limited to architecture. at the end of the 20th century, technology was able to take
4:20 am
over the architecture of employees lives. "the same dynamism and mobility was supposed to permeate the personal life of the employees this time. time and space, these limitations affect us all. how can you conserve precious time and expand your working space? first the pager entered the market and then it was the turn of personal computers, the internet and email. an employee might work eight hours a day. but pager or email could always make him available to his employer. a little later, when internet communication spread, the situation became even weirder. now the age of smartphones had arrived, the age of watching a small luminous screen day and night. with smartphones, employees were closer to their
4:21 am
work environments than before. working hours were constantly distorted. completing an administrative task could happen on the couch in the middle of the night or even behind the steering wheel in the early hours of the morning. very soon all kinds of software related to employee management were written. the software automatically determined the administrative tasks of each employee, even the day and hour when that employee had to perform the assignment. task. there was no opportunity to rest or even to talk to the employer. technology had increased indirect control over employees. employers had gained soft power to lock employees into their work framework. it may not seem like it, but in
4:22 am
many cases, employees worked even more than what they were paid. the reason for this was the change in the way of working. of course, no one noticed this big change because everyone thought they were doing what they always wanted to do. it's located in southeastern cuba on the coast of guantanamo bay. in 2002, the first
4:23 am
detainees were transferred their hooded, shackled and massed, most of them without charge or a criminal trial. it's very easy to do whatever they want to do with this prisoners without any bite. looking, supervising or controlling what's happening there. since then, reports of secret detentions, torture, and suicides have hit the headlines time and time again. i was being dragged through the mud by american soldiers and being punched and kicked and stripped naked again and photographed and shackled and spat on. so that's get now. this is an exclusive report on gitmo only on press tv.
