A hierarchal system of good management. Hiring processes that don't suck.
Instead of a complex recruiting maze where you need to have 13 people review new hires (and strive for the lowest common denominator between the group), they need more freedom to hire good people. People will and do game the system anyway. To counter that, managers need authority to terminate bad apples on a whim.
If these large corporations managed themselves like a collection of startups, we might see more innovation and less turnover.
