How comfortable are you with the idea of relinquishing control over something important to you to someone who doesn’t really wish you well? How about relinquishing control over your career? Over your family’s livelihood? Whenever alignment of interests isn’t present at the workplace, that’s exactly what employees are doing – they’re relinquishing control to the manager who has completely different incentives. If you’re working in a big company, your career success – your next years’ bonus, your promotion – are in the hands of someone who has no rational reason to wish you well.
