Episode notes
Don't Rush; Pay Up For The Right Person
- Hire only when you must; better to attract a person you must get than to rush to fill a slot.
- Be willing to pay above plan if the ROI and impact justify the hire.
Be Fast To Fire When It Limits Growth
- Fire faster when underperformance becomes the company's constraint; otherwise prioritize fixes.
- Frame firing as global good over short-term comfort to avoid systemic harm.
Macro Patience, Micro Speed
- Practice 'macro patience, micro speed': be patient for big outcomes but urgent on small moves.
- Constantly ask what would allow the team to do tasks in half or a fifth of the time.
