What if your company faced an external circumstance that forced them to downsize and get rid of 1/3 of the workforce? Leaders had to decide who the bottom 1/3 of employees were who were least valuable (relative to what they were getting paid).
Would you be cut or be saved?
What if they had to cut 2/3 of the workforce? Would you be cut or stay?
What if they had to cut 90%?
Your job is to be in the top 10%. If you are you will not only never have to worry about this unlikely 90% scenario, but you will realize so many other benefits as well.
Top people are always highly valued.
Be one of them.
Devin has been doing a really great job. He’s found the “right seat” in the organization and we are very proud to have him on our team. He is definitely in the “top 10%” of the organization.
THIS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! This is a great post! Promoting some self reflection.
Good message today – work to become invaluable at your organization.
Beautiful thought! It’s amazing to me, if you could instill this in 30%, 40%, or say 50% of the work force today…how much more successful would we be as a country? I love this and will be challenging all of my employees with this one.
