This being my first Sunday truly off and able to watch TV at night, I was unable to watch Undercover Boss on CBS at 9:00.
This is a show about how a CEO trades places with regular workers while working undercover. It's a great concept and should be practiced at every large business and corporation.
In this episode, the CEO of 7-11 worked several jobs in the company, including working at the stores, as a truck driver and working in the bakery. He was impressed with his workers though upset about the wasted food and lack of maintenance at the stores.
It shouldn't take a reality show for CEO's to find out how hard workers work. They should take their own initiative to find out the positives and negatives of their companies and they should find out first hand, without relying on their administrative team or other supervisors.
Well, at least now I can watch 1 major TV network show now.

ReplyDeleteThere we agree. We do NOT agree that a CEO 'should find out on their own,' b/c that destroys the chain-of-command relationship which is vital for mid-managers.
Better idea: the CEO should utilize internal-audit and HR exit interviews to identify problem areas and then turn up the heat on his mid-managers.
