What's the origin of the saying "The beatings will continue until morale improves"?
I would like to know the origin of the saying "The beatings will continue until morale improves." Do you have any information on that?
Yes, I do. The saying is typically used sarcastically to criticize a leadership style that relies on punishment and coercion to motivate employees or followers. It's often associated with military settings, particularly naval tradition.
