executives were old and unenthusiastic and the
younger people working under them did not
seem to be any different. Ross Abernathy did not
feel that at frontier he had the team to do what
he needed to be done. He needed an active team
to achieve its target but was facing problems in
making decision regarding team selection.
ADVICES

Work at the frontiers bank. They are

 Make a team from the frontier bank itself.


 Members of his Chicago team.
 A team of members from outside who are independent
professionals picked for proven performance capacity and not
because of friendship.

which is best and will be beneficial for frontiers bank.
