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 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?
If you are the leader of a large company, then you will need people who are competent in their respective fields. Having an employee who is smarter than his employer does not necessarily mean that he will steal the company's idea. after all, the definition of smart has a broad meaning. there are many large companies that employ people who are very smart, even smarter than their employers.
if I want to build a Startup-based technology business, I will gather smart people to become business partners so that the company I run has a promising future progress. so, I totally agree with what a famous businessman said. and the proof is that he became a famous and successful businessman, because he didn't just rely on himself alone.
