This theory is correct. I acquired a business several years ago with 45 employees. I fired a dozen of them and hired by personality only. My employee turnover rate was less than 5%. The average store’s turnover was 25%. After 8 months the CEO flew out to meet. He wanted to know how my location was able to retain employees. I told him the other locations hired based on skill set but the people’s personalities were toxic. I hired by personality and if they fit the team then trained them. My teams all got along and it was one of the highest performing locations out of 3000 stores in the USA.

I work as an engineer in a union shop and the only bad thing I have to say about unions is that they protect everyone even the toxic abusers. The toxic people are the ones that use the union resources the most because without constant aid, they would get rightfully fired. But the union needs them to keep paying union dues and promote the union for all the good it has done then, namely saving their job after such bad behavior. Removing the cancerous tumors is necessary to save the life. Overall, I’m happy the union exists because they are able to live much better lives when they are not living paycheck to paycheck.

@@BrianGivensYtubeyea, I’m happy unions exist overall. Sure some folks abuse them but I take the good with the bad. At the of the end day, you have the option to have a fighting chance against unfairness / injustices in the workplace with a union. I’ve worked in companies without a union and boy, if management is against you even gif you’re in the right, it’s a battle you won’t win.

I had a very similar experience in retail management several years ago. I took over a store that had been one of the top performing stores but had become one of the lowest performing stores in the division. When I arrived, I immediately recognized the problem -- all the sales associates were all about themselves and were against everyone else. The tension in the building was like thick fog. They beat up the warehouse/delivery guys, the office workers, and even the custodians. They over-promised and under-delivered 100% of the time, then blamed others for their lack of success. I promptly fired all four sales associates and worked with a local college to recruit some smart people with great personalities who were looking for entry level positions is business. We trained them to be sales professionals and they exceeded everyone's expectations. Within a year it was apparent the store would soon be a top performer again.

I run a specialised business in a remote community and can never find skilled staff. A few years ago I stopped employing on skill levels and just employed the best PEOPLE I could. Business has boomed ever since and in the worst skills shortage since WW2 I have maintained full staff levels at all times, with incredibly low staff turnover. It works

The same goes for working for others. Sometimes there are middle management you can't trust, but are good at being seen to be the boss and behaving like so. And I find that people start to quit or quiet quit when that happens.

Good point. My only qualm with this presentation was that he said “we have little or no metrics to measure trust”. I am sure that we have lots of them but they are never disseminated tot he general public. Because being a trustworthy person correlates to how to comport yourself when you believe “no one is watching”. So you will never know you are being tested until the test has concluded. A couple movie examples that come to mind are “The Circle” and “Ender’s Game”.

I managed engineering and technical organizations for 30 years and I agree with him. I combined performance and trust into respect. You don't respect an asshole. How could you learn if you could trust someone? You asked them a question to which you knew the answer. You could trust them if they were truthful or even said they didn't know, but not if they spun a yarn.

I think I lead but people usually don´t me see as a leader but "just" a team member. (I produce music for a living.) It kinda bothers me ´cause I think I´m good at building teams and getting the job done without being an a-hole. But at the end of the day I try to put my ego aside and think it´s enough that I know what I´m doing - even though others don´t see it. This video just reminded me of the fact that we don´t naturally think kind and emphatic people as leaders. The assumption usually is you need to be a bit of an a-hole.

@@panda4247 Yup, I am in the IT field too and based on a test done by the company like 20 years ago, I am an extrovert. Still, the work ethic among "good" IT people is always the same from what I have seen. You are right, those acting like hotshots or taking credit for others' work. Sometimes they are colleagues but sometimes they are your sup or manager which is worse because that is when the real worker bees (unsung heroes) get ignored, passed on for promotion and hardly ever rewarded accordingly. Additionally, Mr. Sinek considers them as a part of world's biggest organization but it is not a corporation, meaning out for profit. When $$/profits is involved, that is when the corruption and injustice starts.

This is why at our work they measure our bonuses based on metrics it is easy to cheat on. Also our QAs are based on meaningless box checking. So you can have someone who is polite on the phone., shitty at their job as they speed through accounts that the rest of us have to fix later on. And we wonder why we are 1-2 weeks behind in accounts we manage. Because the high performers are not really performing highly. They are merely performing quickly. Leaving the rest of us who take the time to do it right to suffer in the middle of the bonus rankings, doing most of the work correctly. I love my job but I have recently decided it may be time to leave. I refuse to work for an employer that rewards poor work ethic.
