The document discusses self-management at The Morning Star company. It was started in 1970 and believes in self-management rather than a traditional hierarchy. Employees have a CLOU (Colleague Letter of Understanding) that outlines their responsibilities and goals. However, issues arose with a lack of accountability, coordination, skills development and compensation decisions. The proposal suggests addressing these through premium pay for top performers, improving the compensation evaluation process, and adding both minimum fixed pay and variable premium pay. Self-management works best with peer accountability and initiative from all colleagues.
