Differentiation

Jack Welch talks about differentiation and how it helps in running companies successfully, in his book named Winning. What he basically supports is this - differentiating people who are more efficient at work compared to those who are not. And that basically makes sense. Corporates these days have all kinds of bonuses to support his view and such policies actually motivate employees to work even harder.

It sounds perfect but only after the employee has proved himself/herself more efficient than others. Does it make sense in cases when people are hired for the same level/post and are offered different pay packages on the basis of their education or cultural background? If you consider someone better, give him different set of responsibilities and a different post but if on the other hand the responsibilities are same, initial pay packages too shouldn't differ. These are the kinds of politics played in corporates and we all gotta accept them. Guess, there isn't much that we can talk about.
