Why this is so important
First WHO – Then WHAT Good-to-great leaders begin the transformation by first getting the right people
on the bus (and the wrong people off the bus) and then figure out where to drive it The key point is not just getting the right people on the team. The key point is
that “who” comes before “what” decisions – before vision, before strategy, before organization structure, before tactics. First who, then what – as a rigorous discipline, consistently applied
When in doubt, keep looking for the right person When you know you need to make a people change, act Sometimes highly capable people are in the wrong position, move them Put the best people on the biggest opportunities, not the biggest problems The old adage “People are your most valuable asset” is wrong. The old adage “People are your most valuable asset” is wrong.
People are not you most valuable asset. ThePeople are not you most valuable asset. The right right people are. people are.
”Good to Great” – Jim Collins
