"Financial Tsunami" has finally exposed the weakness of our leadership and management in many sectors of the world. We have heard a lot of such shocking stories from many businesses with no exception in Hong Kong, like we hardly perceive how a few key executives from a public company: Citi Pacific Ltd can cause the company for the loss of over HK$150 billion (half of the total assets of the company) via some derivative tools without downside risk protection within a few months. And even worse, as of today, the Chairman of the company still could not identify the real source of the problems as a leader but superficially passed the responsibilities to his some management staff.

During this financial tsunami and its subsequent impact to the bankruptcy and layoff from many companies, you may wonder what had brought to this condition.

We may simply attribute this bad economic condition to the unpredictable nature of the market in stocks, commodities, currencies, etc as our economy works in a cycle that up and down is inevitable. Yet, such answer leads us no solution to the problem. The answer is always the question itself. So what are the questions that can open the door for solution?

The valid questions are "Who had brought us into this bad condition? Who have competence, leadership and insight that can protect us from such bad condition, lead us to play fair and safe game and the business can continue to survive even during economic downturn?"

If you really dig and look at the root of any bad condition that any company may have experienced, you will probably find some destructive executive personalities at work or some incompetent executives possibly also under the bad influence of destructive personalities to make wild and unbelievable mistakes. That's why the management of the business should be very careful whom they select to work with or promote to some key senior decision making executive positions.

Human capital can be the most important asset or the biggest liability to any company, depending on how the company hires, retains and develops its management and executive team so to achieve the goals and purposes of the business together.
