Today's poser.
You resign from your company and join another company. Your were happy with your previous employer and he treated you well - you are moving just because a better opportunity arose.
In your new job, you need to hire four good lieutenants. You know that if you approached your four buddies in the old company, they would join you (for they loved working with you). But if those four left too, the business in the old company would be seriously affected.
This is one of those cases where in different cultures, you'd get completely different first responses. In some cultures, this is not a dilemma at all - you'd just do it. In other cultures, this would be a complete no no.
But, as I mused before, I believe these are deeply individual decisions based on one's values and beliefs. There is no "right" answer.
Would you place the call to your buddies ?
