Education

This is an incredibly broad subject. It is something that every company and organization wants to encourage employees to get more of. Strangely enough, many companies make it difficult for this to happen. In order to provide tuition reimbursement, for instance, they require proof that each course taken will relate directly to the individual’s job. I belief that employees have a better chance to develop the education habit if companies help pay for any course, including basket weaving, that people want to take.

Profit

All organizations need to make a profit. In volunteer or not-for-profit organizations, excess funds are not called profit. In profit-making organizations, profit can by planned by arranging the prices or arranging the expenses and by understanding all the rules and regulation of accounting. A company should make at least 6 or 7 percent after tax if it is to be thought of as a successful profit-making organization. This enables the company to give an adequate return to the shareholders and to set aside money for future development.

Profit by itself is not a really good way to measure the performance of the senior executives because if profit is the primary criterion, they can hold back on other necessary expenses in order to make profits rise. When they leave to go on to more important jоbs, a great deal of maintenance and rebuilding has to be done inside the company.
