If your organization confuses loyalty and tenure there is trouble on the horizon…If your business rates tenure higher than performance as a measure for employee evaluation, it is time for you to consider updating your talent management practices and procedures. So, what’s wrong with tenure you ask?

In this example the hourly rate of a CEO who makes $750k is $375 dollars per hour. For instance, rather than leveraging down to the $100K talent in the example above, if you drive down further to let’s say a $30k individual, you increase your organizational leverage factor by almost another 30%.

All businesses have competition, serve stakeholders and other various constituencies, and must do certain things to avoid failure while on the path to creating a sustainable endeavor.

I think you’ll find that your view of the world will change dramatically when you rely upon your own observations, as opposed to what you read in a management report, or what you hear third or fourth hand in a meeting. The arrogant CEO doesn’t value the input of line and staff management.

If your company’s long-term business plan requires the acquisition, or retention of the uber employee then your business not only has a risk management issue, but it is likely not scalable. Take Google, for example. Talent is clearly a plus as long as it is a value add and not a business requirement.

They attempt to change through their example. Too often, people are either promoted or end up in the top position without the training, experience, and character that allow for effective management and strategic vision.

Contrast this with the feelings you have when you hear an awful sound-bite that makes a leader look either uninformed or unintelligent.
