I have been with the company for twenty three (23) years. I have seen four (4) CEOs and seen the management scenes changing like a fast forward motion picture. I have seen its best and perhaps now seeing its worst. In the past where loyalty to the company was toasted by a show of the years with the company; today anything longer than five (5) seems way too much! It is viewed with lack of experience and exposure to continue to be of value.
The company culture has changed because of leadership or perhaps a better description could be powershift. The power vested in the CEO when pushed strongly down creates a generation of zoombies who will start off each conversation with the following; "the CEO said..." even though they are paid millions of dollars and supposed to know how to think. They do not think anymore. If if they did, they are not showing.
My journey of 23 years is almost ending, and the destination is barren land, where all the respect and pride are stripped off. It started as the Garden of Eden and now it is Desert of Hurt.
The garden has snakes and the desert has oasis. The human innovation can thrive whether in the garden or the desert. In this journey, I have seen the snakes and the oasis, and I am by far richer in experience and insight to move from Nowhere Land to a Somewhere Land, where I will spend time guiding people to have a safer journey through either garden or desert.
That perhaps would be my next journey.
