We thought back to a story our friend Marty had shared with us. Marty is a management consultant hired by a start-up Internet company. The people were too busy and stressed out, causing many disputes among them.
One of the key members of the technical staff, Toni, had been working for 14 hours a day, seven days a week. She had told Marty that she had received several job offers and was tempted to take one. Marty then asked if he could do anything to keep her in the company.
