[QUOTE="85Escape, post: 626767, member: 3560"] I agree, and it has caused me to be a little concerned with the approach. We call people who work really, really hard, say all the right stuff all the time, but don't ever make an actual business impact "Boardroom Geniuses". I mean, you need some people who grind it out and produce average but very dependable results. But you won't dominate your area of business with a bunch of grinders. You need people who make *it happen, who deliver real results and who change the basis of competition. So I reward outcome, not output and certainly not input. It's an extreme ownership mentality...we either won or we lost, no excuses. Trying hard isn't enough. That being said, if you produce great results but are a jerk and/or create a bunch of drama, then I'll let you go be a hero at the competition and I'll be happy about it. Way too many people think that their personal outcome is what is important and it is not...the team's outcome is everything. If the net effect of having you on the team is negative, no matter how impactful you individually are, then bye-bye. So I do expect a positive and team-first attitude from everyone and won't tolerate prima-donnas long at all. [/QUOTE]
