| | Hunter Walk "There's a tendency to wait for an outcome and then use that data to pronounce whether the decision itself was a good one or a bad one. Careers, investments, relationships – was it a success? Then it was a good decision, right? Oh it failed? Bad decision." | | Kai Stinchcombe "Another implausible idea is using the blockchain as a distributed storage mechanism. On its face it makes sense — you break your document up into "blocks", encrypt them, and put them in a distributed ledger… it's backed up across multiple locations, it's secure, and easy to track everything that happened." | | "If a member of your team cares enough to recommend someone they know to join your mission, she will definitely want to stay up to date on how her friend/ex-colleague/school chum is doing! Giving your referrer a top shelf experience throughout the process will be just as important as ensuring that the candidate has a good experience — not only will this encourage her to keep referring relevant candidates, but just like any good experience should generate positive word of mouth within the team." | | JT Ripton "While it may be tempting to use your hiring budget on people with brilliant technical minds, remember that you will need leaders to grow. This means you'll need employees with people skills and practical experience, and not just tech wizards." | | | | |
