The best way to increase stock value in short/mid term - cut costs... (aka your salary/position)
Your incentives never align with any of the publicly traded major tech companies.
Small startups - yes, you have more leeway. Google, Facebook, Apple - yeah, no... outside of top management, your fixes to their mapping application have sweet all to do with stock value.
