On Austerity

Kia-ora


NZ, and much of the rest of the world,  has a whole generation of managers, cannot call them leaders, who have no vision apart from cutting staff, costs and services.


It was an accountant who told me once, "do not put an accountant in charge, they know the cost of everything, and the value of nothing".

Then they act surprised when their skilled staff head for Australia, their customers head elsewhere and their business tanks.

The same logic has now been applied to the whole country.
