Be the dumbest person in the room.

March 2, 2021

Be the dumbest person in the room! What?! That’s right – as a leader of an organization you should strive to be the dumbest person in the room. If you’re sitting around the conference table with the key people in your organization and you’re the one constantly coming up with the great ideas, then you have a big problem and your company will suffer as a result.

The importance of hiring “A” players is critical to the success of your organization. Often companies will hire “B” players as a result of a perceived budget, I’ve been guilty of this myself, but what I know to be true is that “A” Players always out produce what you pay them AND come with a 12-month finance plan – it’s called a salary ☺. 

Remember, your business is only as good as the people you recruit to join it.
