Surround Yourself with Good People

(Photo credit: EnCognitive.com)
In "The Job of a Leader with Jack Welch and Bill Hybels," Jack Welch shares his perspective on how good, secure leaders surround themselves with smart, talented people.


Here are a few highlights:
  • Draw out the people who make you smarter.
  • Learn from those around you.
  • Hire smarter people. Don't hire "dopes."
  • Promote your people. Don't hide them. 
  • Encourage your people to grow.
  • Don't envy your talented people.
  • Celebrate your successful people.
