Joining the dev group has been inevitable, but I wanted to hold out until the new chief of dev came along ( I was told January, but I guess they didn't get their budget so they have to fix their problems now ) solve bob needs newspaper development given glenn is a newspaper developer solution glenn does newspaper development
solve glenn does development given only dev does development solution glenn joins dev
but bob doesnt trust dev, so... solve bob trusts dev given bob trusts glenn solution glenn trusts dev and dev trusts glenn
So now it it gets down to the interesting part. How to solve for mutual trust between glenn and dev? solve glenn trusts dev dev trusts glenn given glenn mistrusts dev dev mistrusts glenn solution
bob's desire to control compensation implies that bob doesn't trust glenn if bob's control over compensation builds trust, then the control should be both ways in order to be mutual. It also folows that he should control dev's compensation.
