Learning from the GREATS - Steve Jobs

--:--
"What matters is that you believe in people."Putting the appropriate people in the right jobs and then having faith in them to deliver were only two examples of how Jobs' "faith in people" attitude was put into reality.Like Jobs, astute innovators and visionaries at the top of the corporate ladder recognize that they are not likely to know everything, so they enlist the assistance of knowledgeable professionals to help them strategize.According to Steve Jobs, "It doesn't make sense to hire smart people and tell them what to do; we hire smart people so they can tell us what to do."Music track: Enlivening by PufinoFree To Use Music for VideosSource: https://freetouse.com/music
