Do you think it is necessary to encourage people to compete with others in companies?

I think that it is probably beneficial to companies to have their staff competing both internally and externally, though only to a certain extent. Internal competition would include people working hard to ensure that they are the one who receives the promotion, where external competition would be developing a culture in which the working teams want to out perform a competing company. This would all be in the best interests of the company as long as they can prevent these corporate culture trends from becoming toxic.
