Changes

Cliff Oxford, founder of the Oxford Center for Entrepreneurs, [http://boss.blogs.nytimes.com/2014/09/11/heres-how-to-keep-competitors-from-poaching-your-employees/?_r=0 writing] for the New York Times suggests a solution. In order to avoid the "huge and demoralizing loss for the culture and profits of a company" that is talent and information poaching, Oxford claims a new hire “break-up fee” worked for him and his company. He claims the plan worked as follows: employees started at about 50% less than market rate, but by month 12 they were 20% ahead of the market. By the end of the second year, they were 40% ahead of the market, and by year five they could be as much as 100% ahead of the market, and "worth every penny." Keeping in mind the potentially disastrous effects of business poaching and information dissemination, plans such as Oxfords may be a solution to reap the many benefits of co-working in entrepreneurship while avoiding the detriments.
