Speaking of the search for good executives, Reiff said "it is not enough to know if a man has 10 years experience. The question is, was it one year repeated 10 times, or 10 years of increasing total experience?" All businessmen, he said, face a productivity problem. "The average persons works only 3 hours out of an S-hour day. We have the lowest rate of productivity of any industrial country in the last 11 years, exceeded only by Canada.

Some nations have four times as much productivity per man hours as the United States.

He said he advised one longhaired applicant to trim his locks.

The youth said he didn't see why that was important. "It's important because the man who writes the checks isn't hiring long hairs," Reiff said he advised the man. "Personality," he went on, "is the ticket for a living. It's the firm footstep and the voice that rings. "Logic is the ability to think beyond step one." Next in importance to the applicant landing a job, he enumerated skills, attitudes, goals and philosophy.

One should learn where the child's strengths and weaknesses are in order to teach toward the strengths.
