Is Your Company Lying to You?

by Brad Isaac on May 4, 2006

Here’s an article that continuines with the theme of how important it is to have your own stake in the ground (i.e. your own side business). FastCompany has posted a humorous, yet too commonly accurate article about the 5 most common lies in business as per Paul LaFontaine.

Lie: “People are our most important asset.”
Lie: “This was a rational decision.”
Lie: “We judge people by their performance.”
Lie: “This is business, it isn’t personal.”
Lie: “The customer comes first.”

The article goes on to tell what’s really going on behind each of those statements.  Does your company tell any of these lies?  If so, what’s the real truth behind them?
