Hiring: Constantly upgrade your team and talents

What works for your organization at one size won’t be adequate for the next level. Your competition is not sitting still. Increase and change your expectation level as markets and competition change and your organization grows. Match these changes by hiring better people, adding people with new skills and expanding abilities of current employees.
