You need to be providing obvious alpha (positive return on investment) and you won’t be fired

On the flip side you need to reduce your alpha to maximize your own personal compensation.

This ends up in a balancing act. Don’t play it too safe.

Can you elaborate - You need to reduce your alpha ? Are you referring to - Reduce ones expenses?
