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 the employer = company's head,
I think he may be lucky if the employees are trustworthy people otherwise they could outsmart him, cheat and take advantage of the company.
Companies heads need to be ahead of their employees to be able to guide and use them to run the companies properly. The problem is that a lot of people don't really deserve to companies head so they look for people who are ahead of them to manage. The head needs to understand the business well and be fully in charge of his company.
