“Good news for stockholders can be bad news for other

stakeholders.” Gregory Miller, Assoc. Prof., Harvard Business School.

www.myCNI.com.my www.OOBEY.com

Page 71: Employee Differentiation in Successful Rewards Management

In the end…

• Great Wall of China– humans are the weakest link– bad treatment of staff will lead to weak link i.e.

easier to bribe, easier to con, etc; – bad treatment examples: insulting, lose face,

broken promises, no dignity, public criticism, restructure without communication
