I'm not so sure. I'm not saying it's easy to solve difficult problems, but there has to be ownership of problems and accountability for results.

If you are the VP of a division at GE and your LOB constantly struggle under your management, you will be fired. They will find someone to take you place who understands the seriousness of the issue and tries new ways to solve it.

I wish Bush had fired Rums at the start of his second term.

Results matter.
