In this episode, REBL sits down with entrepreneur Kasim Aslam to explore why most small businesses hire incorrectly and how peak performers can completely transform a company. Kasim breaks down the flawed framework most leaders follow, the math behind Pareto distribution, and why paying more for exceptional talent always pays off. He also offers practical guidance on delegation, mindset, and attracting top remote talent.Key Takeaways - Most hiring frameworks treat people as commodities which repels top performers and encourages mediocrity.- Understanding Pareto distribution reveals that a small minority of employees drive the vast majority of results.- Peak performers require autonomy, not micromanagement, and their output drastically outweighs their cost.- Delegation is a critical entrepreneurial skill and should be built around outcomes and inputs, not tasks.- International markets offer extraordinary talent when approached with the right mindset and compensation strategy.
