>>*****KOESTENBAUM'S WEEKLY LEADERSHIP THOUGHT*****
>>
>>People work today for marketability, mostly their own. An effective
>>organization, therefore, offers marketability to its workforce as the
>>ultimate inducement in an alienating economy. Marketability is a business
>>objective. It is stock-price sensitive and stock-price intensive. It works
>>both ways: for the individual and for the organization. It is rational and
>>ethical. That is the new meaning of loyalty. Developing marketability is
>>an
>>answer to the retention and recruitment predicament in the knowledge
>>economy.

This is as good an example as any of what I said on the list the other day, when I noted that "American life is coarse beyond description" and that "I put 100 percent of the blame on capitalism."
