The right people.....
The first ingredient in the recipe for success is bringing together the right people . We have found this to be true of companies, projects, teams; anywhere where a challenge is being met. The right people must possess not only the required "skills" for their role but also the right "wills". The most talented, smart and gifted individual isn't always the right person. Skills by themselves don't guarantee success. Someone must also possess the right "will", also known as commitment or work ethic, to do what is required of them. In fact, if forced to choose between skill and will, we will generally go with will, since skills can be learned.
