3. Evaluation by performance, merit rating, or annual review of performance • Arbitrary and unjust system • Demoralizing employees
4. Mobility of management • No roots in the company • No knowledge of the company • No understanding of its problems
5. Running a company on visible figures only • No use of figures that are unknown or unknowable • Encouraged by business school.
