Everything starts with getting the right people on your bus. In today's episode, Clint joins Dr. Parker to talk all about hiring and how to avoid the common pitfalls.
“If you have the right people on your bus, the problem of how to motivate people largely goes away. The right people don’t need to be tightly managed or fired up: they will be self-motivated by the inner drive to produce the best results and to be part of creating something great… And if you have the wrong people, it doesn’t matter whether you discover the right direction; you still won’t have a great company. Great vision without great people is irrelevant.” - Jim Collins
