To boss: I plan to do my work by tomorrow. In reality you do it a week later, not deliver on schedule and you get away with - I did try my best, really did.
Production type work, which you describe above, is not the same thing as making deals. In deal making you put in the work ahead of time, and sometimes when you get to the deadline the correct decision is to say "no". So bad analogy.
But to tweak the analogy, IF I did business development or recruiting at my job (which I don't, I'm technical), and I landed either clients or new hires on the magnitude of Luka and KP in a calendar year, and followed that up by placing a new, hard working coachable team around them, and helped the company to position it's assets so that it could add even more talent over the next couple of years, then I'd get a massive promotion and raise.
