“THE PRONOUN TEST: For six months now, I’ve been visiting the workplaces of America, administering a simple test. I call it the ‘pronoun test.’ I ask frontline workers a few general questions about the company. If the answers I get back describe the company in terms like ‘they’ and ‘them,’ then I know it’s one kind of company. If the answers are put in terms like ‘we’ or ‘us,’ I know it’s a different kind of company.
