Episode 3 – Building an “A” Team for your Enterprise: Getting the Right People to Do the Job

While every enterprise tries hard and tries constantly, getting the right people is always a challenge. However, building an ‘A’ team is not always about getting the right people; it’s often about building the right culture. Right person in a wrong culture is as meaningless as a wrong person in the right culture. Culture has the power to turn bad into good and vice versa. By using the phrase ‘getting the right people’, the onus of being right unknowingly and unintentionally shifts to others. Using the phrase ‘getting the right culture’ keeps the onus firmly on the enterprise.
