Quoted context
These are the quoted author’s words.
Two things matter most when hiring executives or promoting leaders internally: 1. Can they hire exceptional people? 2. Can they solve hard problems? External executives are usually experienced at building teams, but often lack the context and content depth to solve the hardest problems themselves. Internal leaders usually get promoted because they’re exceptional problem solvers. The question is whether they can become exceptional at hiring. The best leaders can do both.
