In some email I received from George Capehart, sie wrote: [...]
What we have here is a failure of management. What I mean is this: If the managers of the sysadmins that are described in this thread a) had a clue about what skills their people needed to have and b) provided leadership and actually developed the skills of their people, this problem wouldn't exist.
[...] I know at least one large, Australian company (they'd call themselves a multinational company) where it is the company policy to NOT send staff on training courses. Why? Because they fear that in doing so they provide the staff with a better resume and its easier for them to find another (better) job. That sort of problem doesn't start "in the middle", but at the "top". Really, it indicates a "rotten core" (if you think of the people at the "top" also being at the "core".)
