Takeaways

  • Don't let the smartest people in the company be the worst employees.
  • Problematic employees, such as heretics and flakes, can destroy communication and trust within the organization.
  • Having a leadership void where the smartest person becomes the de facto leader can be dangerous.
  • Create a culture that fosters the right behaviors and addresses toxic behavior promptly.
