1、There are two basic differences between the large and the small enterpris. In the small enterpri you operate primarily through personal contacts. In the large enterpri you have established policies, channels of organization, and fairly rigid procedures. In the small enterpri you have, moreover, immediate effectiveness in a very small area. You can e the effect of your work and of your decisions right away,once you are a little above the ground floor. In the large enterpri even the man at the top is only part of a big machine. To be sure,his actions affect a much greater area than the actions and decisions of the man in the small organization, but his effectiveness is remote, indirect, and difficult to e at first sight. In a small and even in a middle-sized business you are normally expod to all kinds of experiences, and expected to do a great many things without too much help or guidance. In the large organization you are normally taught one thing thoroughly. In the small one the danger is of becoming a jack-of-all-trades and master of none. In the large one it is of becoming the man who knows more and more about less and less.
There is one other important thing to consider : do you get a deep n of satisfaction from being a member of a well-known organization—General Motors, the Bell Telephone System, the government? Or is it more important to you to be a well-known and important figure within your own small pond? There is a basic difference between the satisfaction that comes from being a member of a large, powerful, and generally known organization, and the one that comes from being a member of a family; between impersonal grandeur and personal often much too personal intimacy; between life in a small office on the top floor of a skyscraper and life in a crossroads gas station.It can be inferred from the first paragraph that in a large enterpri ______.
