A Quote by Katie Holmes

You go in thinking you have to do this all by yourself, and what I learned was no, when you hire great people, they do so much for you.

I think great bosses hire great people. 'A' people hire 'A' people, but 'B' people hire 'C' people; they're worried they might be shown up... they're concerned that that person might make them look bad.

John Stumpf

What I've learned over the years is it's so much better to surround yourself with real talent and hire real chefs. I learned more from the chefs I have working for me than you could ever imagine. There's nothing wrong with being able to create opportunities for people, and you don't have to do everything, take credit for everything, and have all the weight be on your shoulders.

Michael Mina

I've learned several lessons over the years. First, never take yourself too seriously, or work is boring. Next, people make the difference. You can have great technology, but if it's not complemented by great people, it won't go anywhere. Finally, customers buy from people they like.

John W. Thompson

The great thing about David Poile and Nashville is they believe in the people that they hire and they stick with the people that they hire.

Barry Trotz

If you own a butcher shop, don't hire vegetarians. To hire the right people, you have to let the wrong people go.

Robert Kiyosaki

When you surround yourself with white people, you continue to hire white people, and when you make an effort to hire people of color, that does bring in different stories and different people.

Raphael Bob-Waksberg

Actors, by nature, are insecure. I don't see that as necessarily a bad thing. It is good to question yourself, be self-analytical. You get a better performance if you challenge yourself. If you go around thinking you're great, you're never going to challenge or scare yourself.

Sarah Greene

I've learned that maybe sometimes it's better to show people who you are and what you are thinking about. That way, you can be more relaxed with yourself.

Tina Maze

Hire inexperience. This year we plan to hire 200 engineers - half of whom are recent grads. Young people are not burdened by years of experience. They haven't learned - or been told - what is right or wrong. With engineering, there is no tried and tested path. You try, and fail, and fix, and fail again.

James Dyson

I think that a lot of people are going so wrong by analysing music too much and learning from a totally different perspective from the way I learned. I mean, I just learned by listening to people. People I learned from learned by listening to people.

Gary Moore

What's great about working on a sitcom is that I spend so much time with people who are in other fields as well, such as writing, directing, and/or camera operating. Being on set is like being on a playground. I go from one thing to the next, and I've learned so much and hope to continue learning.

Olivia Holt

It's much easier to hire really great people like that in New York and in Brooklyn in particular, than it is in Washington.

David Plotz

It's illegal to hire or fire anybody because of their race, appearance, or sexual orientation, but in Hollywood, ironically, it's the reason people will hire or not hire you.

Dante Basco

I don't have any bad vibes with LSU. I learned so much there. I experienced so much there. I had so much fun. I met great people.

Tyrann Mathieu

Really go out of your way to hire women, people of color, homosexuals, transgendered people - go out of your way to hire them.

Brett Gelman

Good people hire people better than themselves. So A players hire A+ players. But others hire below their skills to make themselves look good. So B players hire C players. C players hire D players, etc.
