Management: “Have a management perspective.” Employee: “If you want me to have a manager’s perspective, pay me as much as a manager.”
It may seem to make sense locally, but a little perspective reveals that the same logic can be used to say the opposite.
Employee: “Pay me as much as management.” Management: “If you want me to pay you as much as a manager, then you have to have a manager’s perspective.”
Therefore, this logic is stuck in a deadlock.
On the employee side, workarounds include “becoming a manager by starting a business” or “joining a venture with a small number of employees, which makes it easier to be exposed to the manager’s perspective. Management’s workarounds include the New Graduate President System and giving more discretion to talented young people.
