One of our professors posed a question in the class, "Is there a difference between commitment vs loyalty?". e.g. Can you be committed to your wife but not loyal or may be you could be loyal to your wife but not committed.
Well, there is indeed difference between commitment and loyalty and he brought it out by an example. He says, as per a study done, most MBA students from top universities would join jobs and they would be totally committed but not loyal to these jobs. Meaning, wherever you work, you would give your 100% to the job. They will work hard, contribute with ideas and whatever it takes to make the company successful. However, if they find another good job where they like more, they would switch easily, i.e. no loyalty! And then they will be totally committed to the new job! Interesting thought!
