ื–ื” ื”ื™ื” ื‘ืื‘ื™ื‘ 1988
00:16
when I had the aha moment.

ื›ืฉื—ื•ื•ื™ืชื™ ืืช ืจื’ืข ื”"ืื”ื”".
00:19
I was at my first roundtable,

1856
ืœืืœื” ืžื›ื ืฉืœื ื™ื•ื“ืขื™ื,
00:24
the roundtable was a very commonly used phrase on Wall Street

ื”ืฉื•ืœื—ืŸ ื”ืขื’ื•ืœ ื”ื•ื ืžื•ืฉื’ ื“ื™ ื ืคื•ืฅ ื‘ื•ื•ืœ ืกื˜ืจื™ื˜

for analysts, associates, vice presidents, all the way up to managing directors.

ืขื‘ื•ืจ ืื ืœื™ืกื˜ื™ื, ืžื ื”ืœื™ื, ืกื’ื ื™ ื ืฉื™ืื™ื, ื›ืœ ื”ื“ืจืš ืขื“ ืœืžื ื›"ืœื™ื.
00:35
That was the process where they were discussed behind closed doors

ื–ื” ื”ื™ื” ื”ืชื”ืœื™ืš ื‘ื• ื”ื ื”ืชื“ื™ื™ื ื• ืžืื—ื•ืจื™ ื“ืœืชื•ืช ืกื’ื•ืจื•ืช

around a table, i.e. the round table,

2976
ืžืกื‘ื™ื‘ ืœืฉื•ืœื—ืŸ, ืœื›ืŸ "ืฉื•ืœื—ืŸ ืขื’ื•ืœ",
00:43
and everyone was put into a category --

43200
2496
ื•ื›ื•ืœื ื”ื•ื›ื ืกื• ืœืงื˜ื’ื•ืจื™ื•ืช --
00:45
the top bucket, the middle bucket, the lower bucket --
10
45720
3656
ื”ื“ืœื™ ื”ืขืœื™ื•ืŸ, ื”ื“ืœื™ ื”ืืžืฆืขื™, ื”ื“ืœื™ ื”ืชื—ืชื•ืŸ --
00:49
and then that was translated into a bonus range
11
49400
2936
ื•ืื– ื–ื” ืชื•ืจื’ื ืœื˜ื•ื•ื—ื™ ื”ื‘ื•ื ื•ืกื™ื
00:52
that would be assigned to each professional.

2896
ืฉื™ื—ื•ืœืงื• ืœื›ืœ ืื ืฉื™ ื”ืžืงืฆื•ืข.
00:55
This was my first time there, and as I observed,
13
55280
3416
ื–ืืช ื”ื™ืชื” ื”ืคืขื ื”ืจืืฉื•ื ื” ืฉืœื™ ืฉื, ื•ื›ืฉืฆืคื™ืชื™,
00:58
I saw that there was one person that was responsible
14
58720
3296
ืจืื™ืชื™ ืฉื”ื™ื” ืฉื ืื“ื ืื—ื“ ืฉื”ื™ื” ืื—ืจืื™
01:02
for recording the outcome of a conversation.
15
62040
3256
ืœืชื™ืขื•ื“ ืžืกืงื ื•ืช ื”ื“ื™ื•ืŸ.
01:05
There were other people in the room that had the responsibility
16
65320
2976
ื”ื™ื• ืื ืฉื™ื ืื—ืจื™ื ื‘ื—ื“ืจ ืฉืขืœื™ื”ื ื”ื™ืชื” ืžื•ื˜ืœืช ื”ืื—ืจื™ื•ืช
01:08
of presenting the cases of all the candidates.
17
68320
2216
ืœื”ืฆื™ื’ ืืช ื”ืชื™ืงื™ื ืฉืœ ื›ืœ ื”ืžื•ืขืžื“ื™ื.
01:10
And there were other invited guests who were supposed to comment
18
70560
4136
ื•ื”ื™ื• ืื•ืจื—ื™ื ืžื•ื–ืžื ื™ื ืื—ืจื™ื ืฉื”ื™ื• ืืžื•ืจื™ื ืœื”ืขื™ืจ
01:14
as a candidate's position was presented.
19
74720
3000
ื›ืฉืขืžื“ืช ืžื•ืขืžื“ ื”ื•ืฆื’ื”.
01:18
It was interesting to me that those other people
20
78440
3656
ื—ืฉื‘ืชื™ ืฉื–ื” ืžืขื ื™ื™ืŸ ืฉืื•ืชื ื”ืื ืฉื™ื ื”ืื—ืจื™ื
01:22
were folks who were more senior than the folks that were being discussed
21
82120
3736
ื”ื™ื• ืื ืฉื™ื ืฉื”ื™ื• ื™ื•ืชืจ ื‘ื›ื™ืจื™ื ืžื”ืื ืฉื™ื ืฉืขืœื• ืœื“ื™ื•ืŸ
01:25
and they theoretically had had some interaction with those candidates.
22
85880
4336
ื•ื‘ืื•ืคืŸ ืชื™ืื•ืจื˜ื™ ื”ื™ืชื” ืœื”ื ืงืฆืช ืื™ื ื˜ืจืงืฆื™ื” ืขื ืื•ืชื ืžื•ืขืžื“ื™ื.
01:30
Now, I was really excited to be at this roundtable for the first time,
23
90240
3816
ืขื›ืฉื™ื•, ืื ื™ ืžืžืฉ ื”ืชืจื’ืฉืชื™ ืœื”ื™ื•ืช ื‘ืฉื•ืœื—ืŸ ื”ืขื’ื•ืœ ื”ื–ื” ื‘ืคืขื ื”ืจืืฉื•ื ื”,
01:34
because I knew that my own process would go through this same way,
24
94080
3576
ื›ื™ ื™ื“ืขืชื™ ืฉื”ืชื”ืœื™ืš ื”ืื™ืฉื™ ืฉืœื™ ื™ืชื ื”ืœ ื‘ืื•ืชื” ืฆื•ืจื”,
01:37
and that my bonus would be decided in the same way,
25
97680
3056
ื•ืฉื”ื‘ื•ื ื•ืก ืฉืœื™ ื™ื•ื—ืœื˜ ื‘ืื•ืชื• ื”ืื•ืคืŸ.
01:40
so I wanted to know how it worked,
26
100760
1816
ืื– ืจืฆื™ืชื™ ืœื“ืขืช ืื™ืš ื–ื” ืขื•ื‘ื“,
01:42
but more importantly,
27
102600
1536
ืื‘ืœ ื™ื•ืชืจ ื—ืฉื•ื‘ ืžื–ื”,
01:44
I wanted to understand how this concept of a meritocracy
28
104160
3616
ืจืฆื™ืชื™ ืœื”ื‘ื™ืŸ ืื™ืš ื”ืžื•ืฉื’ ื”ื–ื” ืฉืœ ืžืจื™ื˜ื•ืงืจื˜ื™ื” (ื—ื‘ืจื” ืžื‘ื•ืกืกืช ื›ืฉืจื•ืŸ)
01:47
that every company that I talked to walking out of business school
29
107800
3416
ืฉื›ืœ ื—ื‘ืจื” ืืชื” ื“ื™ื‘ืจืชื™ ืžื™ื™ื“ ืื—ืจื™ ื”ืชื•ืืจ ื‘ืขืกืงื™ื
01:51
was selling.
30
111240
1216
ืžื›ืจื” ืœื™.
01:52
Every time I talked to a company,
31
112480
1616
ื‘ื›ืœ ืคืขื ืฉื“ื™ื‘ืจืชื™ ืขื ื—ื‘ืจื” ื›ืœืฉื”ื™,
01:54
they would say, "Our culture, our process, is a meritocracy.
32
114120
4176
ื”ื ื”ื™ื• ืื•ืžืจื™ื, "ื”ืชืจื‘ื•ืช ืฉืœื ื•, ื”ืชื”ืœื™ืš ืฉืœื ื•, ื”ื•ื ืžืจื™ื˜ื•ืงืจื˜ื™ื”".
01:58
The way you get ahead in this organization is that you're smart,
33
118320
3016
ื”ืื•ืคืŸ ืฉื‘ื• ืืชื” ืžืชืงื“ื ื‘ืืจื’ื•ืŸ ื”ื–ื” ื”ื•ื ื‘ืืžืฆืขื•ืช ื”ืขื•ื‘ื“ื” ืฉืืชื” ื—ื›ื,
02:01
you put your head down and you work really hard,
34
121360
2256
ืืชื” ืžืฉืงื™ืข ืืช ื”ืจืืฉ ืฉืœืš, ื•ืขื•ื‘ื“ ืžืžืฉ ืงืฉื”,
02:03
and you'll go right to the top.
35
123640
1616
ื•ืชื–ื ืง ื™ืฉืจ ืœืคืกื’ื”.
02:05
So here was my opportunity to see exactly how that worked.
36
125280
3336
ืื– ื›ืืŸ ื”ื™ืชื” ื”ื”ื–ื“ืžื ื•ืช ืฉืœื™ ืœืจืื•ืช ื‘ื“ื™ื•ืง ืื™ืš ื–ื” ืขื‘ื“.
02:08
So as the process began,
37
128640
2136
ืื– ื›ืฉื”ืชื”ืœื™ืš ื”ืชื—ื™ืœ,
02:10
I heard the recorder call the first person's name.
38
130800
3296
ืฉืžืขืชื™ ืืช ื”ืžืงืœื™ื“ ืงื•ืจื ื‘ืฉืžื• ืฉืœ ื”ืื“ื ื”ืจืืฉื•ืŸ.
02:14
"Joe Smith."
39
134120
1696
"ื’'ื• ืกืžื™ืช'".
02:15
The person responsible for presenting Joe's case did just that.
40
135840
4296
ื”ืื“ื ื”ืื—ืจืื™ ืœื”ืฆื’ืช ื”ืชื™ืง ืฉืœ ื’'ื• ืกืžื™ืช' ืขืฉื” ื‘ื“ื™ื•ืง ื–ืืช.
02:20
Three quarters of the way through, someone interrupted and said,
41
140160
3016
ืฉืœื•ืฉืช ืจื‘ืขื™ ื”ื“ืจืš ืœืชื•ืš ื–ื”, ืžื™ืฉื”ื• ืงื˜ืข ืื•ืชื• ื•ืืžืจ,
02:23
"This is a great candidate, outstanding,

02:28
This is a superstar."
44
148320
1816
ื”ื•ื ืกื•ืคืจืกื˜ืืจ".
02:30
The recorder then said,
45
150160
1496
ื”ืžืงืœื™ื“ ืื– ืืžืจ,
02:31
"Sounds like Joe should go in the top bucket."
46
151680
3080
"ื ืฉืžืข ืฉื™ืฉ ืœืฉื™ื ืืช ื’'ื• ื‘ื“ืœื™ ื”ืขืœื™ื•ืŸ".
02:35
Second person, Mary Smith.

155440
2096
ื”ืื“ื ื”ืฉื ื™, ืžืจื™ ืกืžื™ืช'.
02:37
Halfway through that presentation, someone said, "Solid candidate.
48
157560
3816
ื‘ืžื—ืฆื™ืช ื”ื“ืจืš ืฉืœ ืื•ืชื” ืคืจื–ื ื˜ืฆื™ื”, ืžื™ืฉื”ื• ืืžืจ, "ืžื•ืขืžื“ ื˜ื•ื‘.
02:41
Nothing really special, but a good pair of hands."
49
161400
3016
ืœื ืžืฉื”ื• ืžื™ื•ื—ื“, ืื‘ืœ ื‘ืขืœืช ื™ื“ื™ื™ื ื˜ื•ื‘ื•ืช".
02:44
The recorder said,
50
164440
1336
ื”ืžืงืœื™ื“ ืืžืจ,
02:45
"Sounds like Mary should go in the middle bucket."
51
165800
2616
"ื ืฉืžืข ืฉื™ืฉ ืœืฉื™ื ืืช ืžืจื™ ื‘ื“ืœื™ ื”ืืžืฆืขื™".
02:48
And then someone said, "Arnold Smith."
52
168440
2736
ื•ืื– ืžื™ืฉื”ื• ืืžืจ, "ืืจื ื•ืœื“ ืกืžื™ืช'".
02:51
Before the person could present Arnold's case,
53
171200
3256
ืœืคื ื™ ืฉื”ืื“ื ื™ื›ืœ ืœื”ืฆื™ื’ ืืช ื”ืชื™ืง ืฉืœ ืืจื ื•ืœื“,
02:54
somebody said, "Disaster. Disaster. This kid doesn't have a clue.
54
174480
3816
ืžื™ืฉื”ื• ืืžืจ, "ืืกื•ืŸ, ืืกื•ืŸ. ืœื™ืœื“ ืื™ืŸ ืžื•ืฉื’.
02:58
Can't do a model."
55
178320
1336
ืœื ื™ื›ื•ืœ ืœื‘ืฆืข ืžื•ื“ืœ".
02:59
And before the case was presented,
56
179680
2496
ื•ืœืคื ื™ ืฉื”ืชื™ืง ื”ื•ืฆื’ ืืคื™ืœื•,
03:02
the recorder said,
57
182200
1296
ื”ืžืงืœื™ื“ ืืžืจ,
03:03
"Sounds like Arnold should go in the bottom bucket."
58
183520
3216
"ื ืฉืžืข ืฉื™ืฉ ืœืฉื™ื ืืช ืืจื ื•ืœื“ ื‘ื“ืœื™ ื”ืชื—ืชื•ืŸ."
03:06
It was at that moment that I clutched my pearls --
59
186760
3416
ื‘ืื•ืชื• ื”ืจื’ืข ืชืคืกืชื™ ืืช ื”ืคื ื™ื ื™ื ืฉืœื™ --
03:10
(Laughter)
60
190200
3296
(ืฆื—ื•ืง)
03:13
and said, "Who is going to speak for me?"
61
193520
3480
ื•ืืžืจืชื™, "ืžื™ ื™ื“ื‘ืจ ื‘ืฉืžื™?"
03:18
Who is going to speak for me?
62
198320
2176
ืžื™ ื™ื“ื‘ืจ ื‘ื–ื›ื•ืชื™?
03:20
It was that moment that I realized that this idea of a meritocracy
63
200520
4376
ื‘ืื•ืชื• ื”ืจื’ืข ื”ื‘ื ืชื™ ืฉื”ืจืขื™ื•ืŸ ื”ื–ื” ืฉืœ ืžืจื™ื˜ื•ืงืจื˜ื™ื”
03:24
that every organizations sells is really just a myth.
64
204920
4536
ืฉื›ืœ ืืจื’ื•ืŸ ืžื•ื›ืจ ื”ื•ื ื‘ืขืฆื ืจืง ืกื™ืคื•ืจ.
03:29
You cannot have a 100 percent meritocratic environment
65
209480
5056
ืื™ ืืคืฉืจ ืœืงื™ื™ื ื—ื‘ืจื” ืžืจื™ื˜ื•ืงืจื˜ื™ืช ืžืœืื”
03:34
when there is a human element involved in the evaluative equation,
66
214560
4376
ืฉื™ืฉื ื• ื’ื•ืจื ืื ื•ืฉื™ ื”ืžืขื•ืจื‘ ื‘ืžืฉื•ื•ืืช ื”ื”ืขืจื›ื”,
03:38
because by definition,
67
218960
1856
ื›ื™ ื‘ื”ืขืจื›ื” ื”ื–ื• ืขืฆืžื”,
03:40
that makes it subjective.
68
220840
2496
ื–ื” ื”ื•ืคืš ืืช ื–ื” ืœืกื•ื‘ื™ื™ืงื˜ื™ื‘ื™.
03:43
I knew at that moment that somebody would have to be behind closed doors
69
223360
5456
ื™ื“ืขืชื™ ื‘ืื•ืชื• ื”ืจื’ืข ืฉืžื™ืฉื”ื• ื™ื”ื™ื” ื—ื™ื™ื‘ ืœื”ื™ื•ืช ืžืื—ื•ืจื™ ื“ืœืชื•ืช ืกื’ื•ืจื•ืช

228840
2696
ื‘ื–ืžืŸ ืฉื”ื•ื ื˜ื•ืขืŸ ื‘ื–ื›ื•ืชื™,
03:51
presenting content in such a way
71
231560
2976
ื•ืžืฆื™ื’ ืชื•ื›ืŸ ื‘ืฆื•ืจื” ื›ื–ื•
03:54
that other decision makers around that table

234560
3376
ืฉืžืงื‘ืœื™ ื”ื—ืœื˜ื•ืช ืื—ืจื™ื ืกื‘ื™ื‘ ืื•ืชื• ื”ืฉื•ืœื—ืŸ

ื™ื—ืœื™ื˜ื• ื‘ืฆื•ืจื” ื”ื˜ื•ื‘ื” ื‘ื™ื•ืชืจ ืขื‘ื•ืจื™.
04:01
That was a really interesting lesson,
74
241040
2896
ื–ื” ื”ื™ื” ืœืงื— ืžืื•ื“ ืžืขื ื™ื™ืŸ,
04:03
and then I said to myself, "Well, who is that person?
75
243960
3176
ื•ืื– ืืžืจืชื™ ืœืขืฆืžื™, "ื•ื‘ื›ืŸ, ืžื™ื”ื• ืื•ืชื• ืื“ื?

1856
ืื™ืš ืงื•ืจืื™ื ืœืื•ืชื• ืื“ื?"
04:09
And as I thought about the popular business terms at the time,
77
249040
3736
ื•ื›ื›ืœ ืฉื—ืฉื‘ืชื™ ืขืœ ื”ืžื•ืฉื’ื™ื ื”ืคื•ืคื•ืœืจื™ื ื‘ืขื•ืœื ื”ืขืกืงื™ื ื‘ืื•ืชื• ื”ื–ืžืŸ.
04:12
I said, wow, this person can't be a mentor,
