Superior Mentality


efficiency of the management that
the success or failure of a COM
pany depends, obviously the chief
concern of directorates is to put
in charge men who have demon
strated perior managerial
mentality. Any body of directors
who, for any reason whatsoever,
selected second-raters as eXecu-
tives would bring reflections upon
themselves, would court failure,
bankruptcy.
Is it not clear, therefore, that
it is in the self-interest of direc-
tors that they exercise their most
careful, deliberate judgment when
faced with choosing high-up
executives?
The task of promoting men
from the ranks to junior executive
positions commonly is entrusted
to the managerial tops. Here,
again, it is palpably in their in
terest that they single out the
ablest available brains, since any
bungling lower down would hurt
their reputation and jeopardize the
whole business.
Under these considerations. Is
it reasonable that any self-respect-
ing directorate or Seff-respectlng
management would do other than
accord promotion to those re.
garded as most likely TO fill the
bill effectively?
Why are certain men adj
With the very rare exceptions

At least 9 of every 10 top
