Message | Ya right...more like there own self profit. They employee workers because they cant do the work themselves, and the workers work...because they need money to eat and provide for there families...if a greedy CEO decides that he wants more profit, he'll get rid of workers or cut workers rights in the name of a quick buch...we've seen it time and time again. So NO! |

Message | If CEO's wish to do that yes they can! However it will be ONE quick HLR, for the large profits are in long term returns, such returns require a dedicated workforce who beleive in the company. People with that kind of outlook require looking after, for when you do, only then will your larger returns start coming in. You see, modern managers know that the short term gain, is VERY short term and makes little profit. Keep the workforce happy, reward them well and they will regard themselves as part of the company, they will work harder because they want to, and company profits will increase. You then use a large portion of those profits and invest in R&D and look to expand your company. |
