Recognizing achievement and reward rather than taking credit of accomplishments of their teams for their own benefit and profit.
Compensation should be provided on accomplishments rather than end of year performance ratings. Truths speak louder than words, yet only senior management benefit financially off the backs of their teams.
The 80-20 rule is proven in that 80% of outcomes are the result of 20% doers. There's a lot of mediocrity in the organization and where old talent comes to retire.
Recognition and reward goes a long way. At the end of the day, people want to be compensated according to their value and accomplishments. Again, management reaps the financial benefits off the hard work and labor of their teams. Provide bonuses and incentives for work well done.
