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?
I think it is a good idea for an employer to hire an employee who is smarter than him. Most times in business, the employer who owns the business may not have or know much about his business, so if he eventually sees someone who is or has a good idea or smarter way of improving his business, I think he should be hired without a second though. as the two of them work together to improve and make a positive impact on the business. As the goal of every businessman is profit maximization, Regardless, the employer should also learn from the employee because the employee will someday want to resign and start his own business.
