It has long been a suspicion that our concept of fairness changes according to our wealth. Research from the University of Michigan supports this suspicion, and finds that wealthy Americans have a very different concept of fairness, which translates into a greater willingness to accept inequalities than the general public.

Leader, do you step in to rescue or allow it to fail? I try to create a leadership culture where failure is considered a part of the learning process. It’s okay to fail on our team. It may seem unproductive to some, but many times I have watched someone on my team fail. I probably could have stepped in earlier to rescue by taking control of the project or delegated to someone else more experienced.

Using U.S. Census Bureau data from 1990 to 2011 that encompasses 230,000 acquired startup workers, the author researched these questions and discovered significantly higher turnover rates among acquired workers compared to regular hires.

In contrast, boards of companies owned by private equity tend to be much more hands-on. Often populated by former CEOs, these boards are more likely to get involved in shaping strategy and culture, providing information to the company, and actively engaging with future CEO candidates further in advance of succession.
