pIf yoursquo;re going to get the right ingredients, you need to be disciplined about whom you hire, whom you promote, and whom you reward. It makes no difference what size organization you have; dont just settle for a less effective team. Effective leaders seek to get, in the words of Jim Collins, the right people on the bus~According to Jim Collins, being a good leader means getting, the right people on the bus.rdquo;br /br /Bob Matthews, the founder of Cable Data, one of the worldrsquo;s largest billing companies, was ahead of his time in thinking about how to find the right ingredients. He had an uncanny eye for discerning what people were good at, and he wasnrsquo;t afraid to put people into unfamiliar roles that would tap their talents.br /br /Most peoples natural abilities have nothing to do with their roles, he said. ldquo;I care more about a personrsquo;s natural talents than in their resumes. He hired people whorsquo;d been successful in an eclectic array of fields ndash; a Yoga instructor, a jewelry maker, a software marketer ndash; and inserted them into leadership roles.br /br /In order to avoid routinization, Bob altered peoples roles frequently. Bob realized when people are gaining knowledge, they produce the most effort. When they follow routine effectiveness suffers. Keeping them on their toes, hed put people in new roles every three years. I think it is invaluable when people are put into foreign roles, he said. ldquo;I want to continually challenge them to learn and apply their best thinking.rdquo;br /br /Bob was committed to placing women in senior management roles. He theorized that the nature of women made them more likely to do away with ego in exchange for working collaboratively. The victories of the women who worked for Bob testify to this vision. Many ended up leading Fortune 500 companies./p
