How To Find Great People to Work With - UBI & Talent Distribution

This reminds me of a very similar lesson I learned when hiring in cybersecurity over 20 years: exposing people to training and encouragement makes the stars stand out, but it doesn’t turn everyone into stars.

Google Current State A Waste of Money & Talent

Google Current State A Waste of Money & Talent

Google is slowly getting rid of all the best things it has. The main thing Google is growing is its graveyard. Such a colossal waste of money and talent.
