Relationship management isn't just marriage! The culture is more inclined to work things out if they can, in Singapore with little outside interference, though my suspicion is more life skills training is required.
Money, health & safety, house keeping and all skill assessments at grass root level need looking at, would you believe i had a 40 year old male, who took the electric plug from my hand, and said the green wire is not connected and that's why it wasn't working, when in actual fact the fuse had dislodged and the two metal parts were touching intermittently as it loose in the fitting.
One of our drivers also has difficulty assessing vehicle storage area and logical packing to utilise space efficiently, which is very inefficient and costly, there is not much commonsense used due to a lack of practical experience and study, there is a great deal of opportunity in hospitality training, motivational work experience, team work, ethics and company loyalty at floor level. I have noticed many locals will resign rather than change their attitudes, or learn above 30 year old and upwards.
Which is quite negative and challenging for anyone that employs them, bosses also need a lesson in man management in most cases too, when they freak out, so i would say relationship management doesn't only apply to spousal issues, it's a part of social culture and educational practical experience in problem solving at a young age, that is to blame in my opinion so there are plenty of business opportunities in self improvement and confidence building through team efforts.
I'm not saying there is a right or wrong way of doing things, just that experience shows improving methods of tackling relationship problems in general and constructive efficiency models should always be evaluated, rather than discarded through stubbornness and attitude.
Learning is a never ending experience in itself which needs to be adopted, in all cultures.
I think the majority would pay for self improvement without a doubt, though the course syllabus needs to cover a spectrum of activities that endow the person with life skills in general to feel worthy and self confident.
It covers all sectors really and not just the working class, for self enrichment classes are confidence builders for everyone, educated and non educated.
NS probably goes a long way to install these qualities for some generations, though it is continual self enrichment which needs to be available for all.
Let me know if you intend starting up, I may also be interested to know more!
