How Microsoft evaluates execs | |
|

Microsoft's board of directors is holding top management to a higher standard, and in key areas such as Internet search share and customer satisfaction, the company's performance last year fell short of expectations.

The Microsoft proxy filing provided a detailed look at how the board evaluates company leaders and motivates them with company stock. |

This trend is indeed interesting.
I suggest Robert Reich's book, "Supercapitalism", as a way to explain the board's behavior. Look for more companies to follow suit. |

Waah Waah Waah. I feel NO pity for them.
Let them go out and get a real job, where you have to bust your ass for 5 years straight just to (maybe) get a 2% cola increase. Waah. TL |
