      2.       Shareholder expectations for earnings growth

      3.       Compensation structure based on financial results

      4.       Competition / Staying in the “game”

      The cited mentality may be the rule amongst salaried workers, but my experience points to the most hardcore and ruthless individualists making the most successful business owners. None of their relationships is a coincidence and all of it is built so as to sustain their personal success. Perhaps I see it from a wrong perspective, but this is what i take from it as of now.

      I believe that anything that seems to them as a potential threat specially if they see untaped potencial in some of his workers will consider them as future threat for his supremacy.

      Pride.. and all around egoism. Alot of times the person is just to full of themselves to connect with someone else.. they see themselves as higher, maybe more important and smarter more accomplished.. there could be a multitude of small reasons that really amount to one giant reason, and that is egoism.
