You have to be street smart to survive however still retaining the basic good qualities of life
" you do not stand in front of a Tiger and say , leave me alone i have been a vegetarian all my life"
One need to reinvent himself otherwise the " straight trees are cut first"

Very crisp and precise commentary.
When someone puts systems & SOPs at work, others feel that any one can run the show. The fact is that such individuals are successful because they get time to deal with serious & urgent matters by delegating work to subordinates who have been trained & made capable to handle routine things properly.
Easing them out by thinking that any one can handle such a work is a gross mistake. A Plane or a car on AUTOPILOT function does not mean the Autopilot can replace all manual skills and functions of a trained pilot. The Pilot never becomes redundant.
Those managements who understand importance of both, Pilot & the Autopilot continue to function well by developing personnel and those who do not, face collapse as 'Control Z' function (undo), so easily available on the computer key board is not available in real life situations.

Thanks Dilip,
What a timely article...!!!!
This article is a clear confirmation of my judgement on one employee who has just been asked to leave one of the companies where I am director.
He was a "Bull in the China Shop" and his destructive, damaging, unnecessarily aggressive behaviour had had led many good employees to leave this company in the past.
I got on board recently and found that he has been a favourite of another director and all others have been turning a blind eye on his antiques purely because of his "Jack of All Trades" label.
I found that he has been aggressive exactly against the people whom he was competing for promotions or who were smarter than him.
Over an incident that took place in front of two directors of the company, it has been now decided to sack him.
As experienced and observed by me, it is the superiors who make mistakes most. Unless a new recruit is guided down the correct path (at times for your short term personal gains), it is truly a waist and a loss to any company as he/she will be a problem at some point.
“There are no good or bad people – situations & circumstances make them good or bad…!!” Author unknown....
Therefore, the ownership of creating good or bad employees is strongly vested on the shoulders of superiors of an organization.
Had these bad employee been handled, directed and moulded properly, perhaps he could have been a good man in our team even today…!!
