You should never be the smartest person in the room

For certain people to take, this may be a hard pill, but you can never be the smartest person in the world. I know this assertion would be scrutinized by a lot of you. After reading it, some of you would also get defensive. I stick by it, though, and I'm not the only one either. One of the most difficult career paths to follow is entrepreneurship. There would be a lot of entrepreneurs out there if it was easy. This isn't the case, though. Failure is inescapable with most individuals. So, it's no wonder that some entrepreneurs who make it through their first, sixth, and tenth company years are being greedy. It is hard to come up with business positive stories. And that these egos catch up with them inevitably and may become challenging. People don't like to recruit people who are better than them, regardless of their egos. Yet this is being achieved by some of the world's most revered pioneers. This is how Michael Dell utilizes his staff. Mark Zuckerberg is the same. Also, the founder of Apple, Steve Jobs, knew this. When Jobs said, "It doesn't make sense to employ smart people and tell them what to do; we employ smart people so they can tell us what to do," he made one of the most insightful comments on handling talent. An organization could be based on the vision of one person, however, its workers maintain it. Since billionaires know that this is real, why is this not the norm for any business in every sector to hire? Good rulers know that accomplishment is not a one-person display. Growth, sustainability, and competitiveness are a team effort. Hire people who challenge barriers endlessly, shatter glass doors, and challenge you beyond your comfort zone. "If you're the most intelligent guy in the world, you're in the wrong place." Hold competition in the workforce beyond In industry, the rivalry is the company's pulse. This inspires politicians to aim for the impossible and to work more tirelessly to achieve their targets. Yet it is only possible to accomplish these targets when you have a skilled team standing alongside you. While a healthy sense of employee rivalry is normal, there should never be rivalries veiled between leaders and workers as egotism-yes, it happens even more than you might expect. It can compete with how they assign tasks and build a deeply unstable atmosphere if a leader is centered on how they look relative to others. A leader definitely also understands their capabilities, but they must still understand their weaknesses. This self-awareness is important in making sure they check their ego before work every day. If the creativity of your workers challenges you, instead of cultivating a cohesive team that works together to create a successful business, you decide to work against them. In other words, you'll end up being good in your own way. "Never recruit someone who knows little about what he is paid to do than you do." Hire them, let them ride Entrepreneurs also have a somewhat mistaken understanding of management. Good leaders don't recruit workers to tell them what to do, they recruit personalities from whom they can learn. Your job is not to tell an employee anything they need to know to do the job well; with this experience, they can already come to the table. Instead, developing an atmosphere that is conducive to their growth and progress is your duty. It should be your intention to recruit people and then let them soar. In no way does this compromise your experience and leadership skills. Strong workers actually do not need your continuous attention and assistance. Anyway, you do not have the time for that, since you need to free up your life so that you can concentrate on the big-picture duties of running a business. The world of business is not a position of greed. If you are not able to recruit people who are better than you, you can work twice as hard to get half as fast.
