I was listening to a YouTube video by a famous business man and he was saying that he prefers to hire employees who are smarter than him. Do you agree with this style of working?
What is the point of hiring someone if they are not smarter than you? Have you seen Elon Musk's Space X empire and his workers? Everything in the company is done by scientists because they know the job better than him, but credit goes to Elon. You will never see a headline that says employees invented this or outshined the CEO, they always work in the shadows while the employer enjoys their hard work.
What are the possible intentions behind doing this? Isn't their fear that these smart employees can steal ideas from office or get client details and then start their own companies? What is your view regarding this?
Employers are very careful about how they give or share their trade secrets or intellectual property with anyone, which is why you see that companies do have restricted areas that are off-limits to some staff members. All companies have trade secrets and trademarks, which are what protect the company against copying from other potential people who have a similar interest in operating a similar business or stealing ideas.
