[QUOTE="interested, post: 51843"] Good points all Tie-Let's chop this up. I am not sure what you mean by service ethics, If you are intimating that it is adhering to a specific set of performance criteria, rest assured there are more than enough talented people out there used to being held to strict performance requirements. If you are referring to the high level of service we provide in our package operations, I don't think that we would hire someone who didn't have a proper set of expectations of what the job entailed. Don't forget, There are many, many skilled operational people out there who have nothing to do with UPS, FedEx or any of our other competitors. We have all been in large pick and pack operations, and witnessed the incredible technology that is out there. There are legions of well trained, capable and accomplished folks out there with great records of ethics, achievment and leadership. It is wrong to assume that they could not hold our standard of service. It is also narrowminded to think that there are not people outside of this organization who could not come in here and effectively manage a specific indicie of our business. It may be advantageous to have driven a package car before you become an account executive, but it is not nearly as crucial to your success in sales at UPS as having outside sales experience and understanding the skills required to effectively sell our services. That same paralell can be drawn for many aspects of our business. Let's not limit ourselves to operations. Business development, Human Resources, IE, there are many different areas of mangement where we may see contraction and could use transfusion of new blood. The bottom line is that we need to start preparing ourselves for change in UPS. There very well could be an overhaul of how we do things and who we get to do them. The bottom line is that the onuss is on us, the current management, to think outside of the box and utilize all the opportunities we have at our disposal to change our spots and try and grow with the company. If not, you could be on the outside looking in. Wall Street doesn't care about anything but results, part of the process of reporting to the analysts is to instill confidence in the management ranks.
