Leadership Lessons For The Senior Class (Part3):
Recruit Competent, and Honest People.

Exodus 18:21( King James)
Moreover thou shalt provide out of all the people "able" men, such as fear God, men of truth, hating covetousness; and place such over them......

Exodus 18:21 (CEV).
You will need to appoint some competent leaders who respect God and are trustworthy and honest.....

Exodus 18:21( Living Bible)
"Find some capable, godly, honest men who hate bribes, and appoint them.....

Leadership Lessons For The Senior Class
In my life I have had the privilege to meet with and discuss with some of the greatest leaders from politics, business, philanthropy, and even the church. And whenever the discussion has turned to effective leadership. There is always one thing that occupies 80%, of a serious discussion:

-Finding, attracting and holding onto talented and skilled people.

The "big secret is out"!

Jethro advised Moses to appoint people, ...."such as are able".
God Himself told Moses to appoint, Bezeliel, because he was "highly skilled as a craftsman".
As a leader you must have the ability to identify people, such as "are able".

When I consider my own humble history, as a business, I have always used our ability to attract "talented and skilled people", as one of the most important measures of progress and success. I will never forget the first time, I managed to persuade a university trained engineer to join us. I offered him the best car, I could buy (better than what I drove), I also paid him the highest salary.... Better than I got paid! We have technicians who are better paid than engineers. We have craftsmen who are better paid than some of their own managers:
I have no problem with it.

If you want to understand how this works, just consider a top flight football team, like Real Madrid or Manchester United. Do you know who is the best paid?
- the most skilled player, or the longest serving?
-the most skilled player or the manager?

In our battle for growth and success (in business), it basically boils down, to recruiting, and effectively, deploying men and women, that are competent and honest.... from any tribe, gender, age, race, religion... and from "any where ", in the world...
In our business, I spend more time thinking about, how we recruit and hold on to the best people, at all levels... Than any other issue. You can have the greatest idea in the world, but if you do not have the skilled and honest people to run with it, there will be no success.
