1stget the right peeps on the bus, the wrong peeps off the bus, the right peeps in the right seats, & then, only then decide where to drive the bus!
Collins had 3 big principles for leaders, but i especially dig the last 2...
2 important principles for Leaders:
1 If you have the right peeps on the bus, the problem of how to motivate and manage people largely goes away.
*The right people simply don’t need to be managed or motivated. They’ll be self motivated by their inner drive and desire to create something great.
2 If you have the wrong peeps, it won’t matter if you have the right direction! You still won’t have a great organization!
***“Great vision without great people is irrelevant!”
*Just focus on injecting an endless stream of talent into the organization. (maybe even with no specific job description in mind)
& that's the surest way to create a great organization = lots of great people.
