Just imagine next year budget, when we end up using only 80% of our
budget will look like just because we aren't '''the bigger
spenders'''?
This is an important point, and continues on from the discussion Christoph
and I were just having. When we get to FY18 and FY19, I don't think we
should base our allocation on percent spent at all. We're just using that
as a proxy for the relationship between plans and actual activities.
Instead, allocation should be based on the demonstrated results from
whatever was spent. If LATAM spends 80% of what was planned but gets
really great, measurable results, that's ''significantly'' better
than
spending 100% and getting question marks — and future allocation should
reflect that.
Don't get me wrong, I understand that everyone is getting cuts,
yet,
seems that LATAM is getting always the worst.
Yeah, that wasn't the intention, and I hope adding in the previously-
uncounted $1000 helps balance that a little.
