Strong Blackberry - adicted culture, too many internal emails, and work life too invasive into private life

Advice to Senior Management

There's more value in the staff than meets the eye. Drive internal promotion and relocation proactively to make the best out of the excellent people ressources. Change the culture from quantity of work to quality of work, and ban the blackberry, or usage off hours and weekends for all like Volkswagen did.
