Title:	It Takes a Community.
Authors:	Chalofsky, Neal¹ nealcha@gwu.edu, Griffin, Mary Gayle² gayle@hrdevelop.com
Source:	T+D. Jan2005, Vol. 59 Issue 1, p42-47. 5p.
Subject Terms:	Work environment, Executives, Chief executive officers, Executive compensation, Industrial surveys, Management
Abstract:	The article reports that the industrial era not only separated work from the community, but also it created an environment in which people no longer own their own work, literally or figuratively. Within an organization, hierarchies separate executives from workers and internal competition forces workers against workers as they struggle to climb the corporate ladder. Recently, "Business Week," reported that in 1990 the average chief executive officer pay was 41 times the average worker's pay; in 1999, it was 475 times the average worker's pay.
