Be really picky with your hiring, and hire the absolute best people you possibly can. People are the most important component of almost every business, and attracting the best talent possible is going to make a huge difference.

Peter Berg

Never hire someone who knows less than you do about what he’s hired to do.

Malcolm Forbes

Although most executives pay lip service to the idea of hiring for cultural fit, few have the courage or discipline to make it the primary criteria for bringing someone into the company.

Patrick Lencioni

I had to learn to trust people, and I realized that success was going to be born in hiring really bright people - very self-motivated, very able to make good judgment calls day in and day out.

Kenneth C. Griffin

There's an ongoing competition by global companies across all areas from products, technology development and hiring talented people to patent disputes. The market is big and opportunities are wide open, so we should find out new businesses that Samsung's future will hinge on.

Lee Kun-hee

We hire military veterans because they make great employees. They bring proven technical and leadership skills. They understand teamwork, and they're adaptable. Bottom line, hiring veterans is good for business.

Randall L. Stephenson

Everyone else is parsing it in terms of lowering the corporate income tax. Eliminate it. It's not that big of a generator of income, and it's a double tax. Get rid of it, and you would have an explosion of hiring.

Gary Johnson

Hollywood stops hiring their star leading ladies when they turn 40. It's very defeating.

Trudie Styler

Am I afraid of President Maurizio Zamparini's reputation for hiring and firing? No, the only thing I fear is death!

Gennaro Gattuso

We focus on two things when hiring. First, find the best people you can in the world. And second, let them do their work. Just get out of their way.

Matt Mullenweg

If you get rich in the name of the poor, fine and dandy. The problem is when you earn it. If you earn the money in the private sector by starting a business and hiring a lot of people, that's when you become the enemy.

Rush Limbaugh

I would say that things like the head tax in Seattle I think are super dangerous for cities to implement. What company is going to want to start - or move to or grow in - a city that penalizes them for hiring full-time employees?
