Tried to prevent a massive product failure.
It failed anyway, but I wasn't around when it did and there would have been no "I told you so" credit even if I were.

Some companies are using internal prediction markets, where employees can speculate on various initiatives: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Prediction_market#Use_by_corporations http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Prediction_market#Use_by_corpor... Open allocation seems like the ultimate prediction market - people deciding on what initiatives to work on and invest their time in is a stronger signal than dysfunctional internal politics. And people are likely to be more motivated working on projects they think have value.
