Evolution

»

Following my posting yesterday about weeding out the bottom, some folks have indicated that this system does not work all the time.

Well, the organization renewal process of weeding out the bottom 10% is actually an evolution system. And like all evolution system, the rules you set will determine what kind of organization you have at the end.

For example, if the selection criteria is based on “the ability to listen commands and follow rules” and you weed out the bottom 10% based on this rule, over time, you will have an Athena organization. e.g. government, military organization.

On the other hand, if the selection criteria is based on “ability to make sales”, you will get an organization which is have mostly sale people. e.g. MLM.

Hence, knowing what is the type of organization and the culture you want is very important before you apply this process.
