Robert Kraft, the CEO of The Kraft Group, (and a Harard Business School graduate) has three simple principles for hiring people that work for him:
1. Good moral character, loyal to the organization, and plenty of integrity
2. Great work ethic
3. Brain power (I believe that he means strong analytical skills and capacity to think outside the box)
Ed Zander, CEO of Motorola, says that he always hires only the best. He prefers people who are better than him because eventually they make him look better. He also believes in having a succession plan and grooming his successor for each job that he has had.
Paul Palandjian, President of International Real Estate Corp., says that he surrounds himself with extremely bright people. He says that he is never afraid of having people brighter than him working for him. He gives them the opportunities to grow and do their best and that is how he creates value for his enterprise.
