When my branch started going down the drain they recruited a few no-hope quislings to go round from office to office spouting this garbage. The only people who paid any attention at all were people like me and my boss who were determined to stamp on it.
Then the powers-that-be announced that senior staff could apply to go on an MBA degree course. I could have applied but...need you ask? I think about 20 nationwide actually started on this. One actually wrote a glowing Bear-style screed in the staff magazine about the new horizons that were opening for him etc etc. He obviously expected promotion.
After a year Head Office dropped their support due to government cutbacks. The candidates were informed that they were no longer the chosen few, and that if they wanted to continue they would have to do so in their own time and at their own expense. Result - 20 unhappy bunnies.
When I hear the phrase 'Gap Analysis' I reach for my burp-gun.
