This is the fourth part of a discussion between Jim Hayes and Peter Drucker. This segment tries to answer the question, “What do executives really get paid for?” Drucker basically sums the answer up as executives make sure other people are performing to the best of their abilities. He also discusses the confusion between needing to be busy and doing work, as well as salary discrepancies. He also mentions the dangers of incentives, of over structuring organizations, and of underpaying.
