There is a simple short-cut which allows you to quickly extrapolate an hourly rate from a total annual compensation figure that I find useful for quick comparative purposes. Kicking the bird out of the nest and saying go fly with the project is short sighted and very weak leadership.

I can tell you that without question the best leaders are able to make very complex decisions, on short time frames, and with incomplete information.

Best, Tanmay By Setu Vora, July 15, 2010 @ 12:26 pm Long term growth and cultivating people is ideal. Oftentimes, in the larger corporate culture of focussing on quarterly results, the priority becomes the immediate short- term strategy–leading to high risk growth. Thanks for that very interesting two cents!
