well my math would work out a bit different... They don't get the short-term profits if they lose the value of their long term SP. Its like taking 1 step forward and 2 steps back every day.
If they want me to do the math for them I could show them on paper! ;)
ps... I did it because I believe it. They are foolish to not use their best assets to their full capabilities. I did run 2 different multi-$100 million sales companies and I would never have let someone like you be under-utilized. Its simple if they just got their heads out of their (you pick the word). :D
