Travailler dur ou obtenir des résultats ?

True A-players have a fascinating blind spot, they completely underestimate how difficult their work is to everyone else.

Like a natural runner, they don’t think a 5-minute mile is impressive. They assume everyone can do it. When you praise an A-player for saving a failing P&L, they don't get arrogant…they get confused. To them, it was just the logical next step.

But here is what happens when you pair them with other A-players:

1. Exponential Output: Output doesn't double; it multiplies.
2. The Learning Engine:They stop focusing on just the result and become obsessed with the process of learning from each other.
3. Enthusiasm Loops: High-level peer feedback fuels an unshakeable desire to push the boundaries of what’s possible.

Top talent doesn't resign over the workload….. they resign over the wait time. If your culture forces fast runners to walk, they will run to your competitors.
