Good people, poor managers
Good people, poor managers
Cool products, great tools, great perks.
It's hard to get ideas to improve processes heard by upper management.
When a good idea does get traction, upper management takes credit for it.
Make specific and relevant management skills training a requirement for each promotion on the management track.
Make staying for one year the minimum for each upper management position.
Have an on-time/on-budget award system in the product groups.
