Jack Welch spent his entire career at GE. Like my father, who retired after a 36 year stint at St. Pauls H.S.S. School as an Economics HOD, the same school where i studied.
That kind of career graph is pretty much extinct. Most young people are going to go through several jobs in their lifetime - for the right and the wrong reasons. The way I look at it...
There are two ways to grow the talent pool in your company: coach it or poach it. You achieve the first by hiring bright young men and women who earnestly seek a challenging career with your company.
The second involves cutting short the careers of bright young (and not-so-young) men and women in the neighbouring company, by offering a greater challenge at your own.
Lekin phir aajkal dull but secure jobs hain kahaan ? "Niji naukri mein na izzat hain, na mazza, aur na matlab". Isn't that what we all want from a career - and life in general.
