10x is only an positive if she / he makes others more effective as well. If they detract - and we've all seen'em - then the metric is the delta between the 10x and the affects on the rest of the team.

Since 10x'ers (by defintion) are rare, most leaders / managers should be trying to build 10x teams. That is, the whole is better than the sum of the parts. For example, a team of 5. As team members, at any given moment three rise to 3x, one to 1x and the fifth is neutral. Something like that.
