> A global stack ranking, if it was actually possible, would be great. You do want to get rid of low performers (and hire better replacements)

This is really wrong, to get rid of the 20% low performers, you install a system that destroy everyone's confidence and promote short term decision making.

In the end, you get rid of 20% of people that just don't play the game AND you decrease the overall performance the group of people.

I remember reading a good article showing how rewards affect people performance by changing their goal, but I can't find it. Anyone?
