With that we are in agreement :)
I feel frus...CW,<br /><br />With that we are in agreement :)<br /><br />I feel frustrated when mom is earning peanuts putting her savings in fixed deposits.<br /><br />But the thought of trading on her behalf freaks me out. So I keep my mouth shut.<br /><br />Yup, answering to myself only and answering to mom is the not same ;)<br /><br /><br />Shareholders should act like landowners and make sure their shepherd is working and not skiving - hence the inventions of KPIs, Management by Objectives, and what not to place as "shackles" on the shepherd.<br /><br />However, when the shepherd have many "bosses", he will only answer to that particular landowner that hired him.<br /><br />Minority shareholders and majority shareholders are not the same - just ask Steve Jobs ;)Singapore Man of Leisurehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13774067113884418001noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1602023866179666640.post-63705707710062614482015-01-05T09:08:39.904+08:002015-01-05T09:08:39.904+08:00Yeap! The key word is "listed".
Grassho...Yeap! The key word is "listed".<br /><br />Grasshoppers can dance and sing with their money. Who care?<br /><br />When it is investors' money, better change to NOT Grasshoppers. Investors only see goals, plans, return, and payback.<br /><br />Like what one of SGX listed companies, Mr Fish-man said at one of the SIAS company profiling seminar. He has regretted taking his company public.<br /><br />Why?<br /><br /><br />Stewardship of a kingdom is not the same as conquering a kingdom?<br /><br />Answering to yourself only and answering to many others is the not same.<br />Createwealth8888https://www.blogger.com/profile/08563834016250153049noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1602023866179666640.post-33229331595559103152015-01-05T08:37:05.868+08:002015-01-05T08:37:05.868+08:00Eh...
These are hired-hand CEOs...
You think the...Eh...<br /><br />These are hired-hand CEOs...<br /><br />You think they will be around in 20 years' time to review the goals and plans?<br /><br />Have you noticed hired-hands like to have a planning timeline that's longer than their tour of duty? (Ahem, been there; done it)<br /><br /><br />If you look at founder first generation entrepreneur "CEOs" - those who start up the companies from the ground up - they speak differently ;)<br /><br />Where got time to have a strategic 20 years plan when you are frantically trying to keep your 1 year old startup from running out of cash? When you have no clue whether you will survive the next month?<br /><br /><br />Stewardship of a kingdom is not the same as conquering a kingdom ;)<br />Singapore Man of Leisurehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13774067113884418001noreply@blogger.com
