Get the Right People on the Bus

I used to think that Step 1 in the recipe for business success was to get a clear focused strategy. I now believe that Step 1 is to get the right people on the bus with you and strategy is Step 2. The reason is that without the right people a strategy cannot be designed or delivered successfully.

Tips for getting the right people on the bus:

- Ask 'if I had a clean sheet of paper how many of my team would be on the list?
- Ask 'how many of my team consistently produce results beyond my expectations?
- Get the best people you can't afford!

Ask these tough questions and act on your answers.
