Enron Mail |
Thanks for hosting the breakfast and for emphasizing the importance of the=
=20 PRC process to the success of Enron. Prior to joining Enron, I worked at t= wo=20 other companies in the mid-stream natural gas industry. As I was listening= =20 to you speak about the way Enron was in the pre-PRC days (the Hay system an= d=20 the like), memories of some of my experiences in those organizations came= =20 rushing back. Although I had a number of important reasons for leaving tho= se=20 companies, the key issue in both instances was the failure of their=20 performance review processes. I share that information because I have seen both sides, the worst and now= =20 the best. As with most things, those who complain or criticize often do= =20 not really understand or appreciate how good they have it. Criticism is=20 often fostered by a lack of understanding - - people asking "why?" in a=20 destructive way. The information you shared about the importance of the=20 program to Enron=01,s continued success and the points you made in response= to=20 some of the criticisms of the process were both very important. I will tak= e=20 your message and pass it along, however, I respectfully encourage you to do= =20 likewise to all of Enron. I know you have previously stressed the importan= ce=20 of the process at numerous times and through a variety of modes of=20 communication, but this morning you really gave the all-important reasons W= HY. I appreciate being selected to be on the committee and look forward to=20 participating. Thanks also your leadership, it's truly inspiring. =20 Sincere regards, Ed McMichael
