Building a competitive company

We have three big levers to pull. Our marketing strategy, the people we're going to do this with, and the management systems, (both soft and hard) that will hold it all together. The thinking at the top is most critical. One right decision can effect the entire health of the company. One policy decision, a misunderstanding of customers, a wrong choice in people, all have long reaching impact.

Before you promote anyone . . .

Maturity is king. No employee will willingly work for an immature manager. Forget it. I don't care how qualified, educated, or experienced this manager is - immaturity will keep people away. Second, hire for creativity more than intelligence. Creative people have more options. Creative people don't notice when they're under resourced. (This may take a minute)
