Survival: Simple, Curious, and Interested

Sam A. Hout

Chapter 1 in Survival to Growth, 2013, pp 1-7 from Palgrave Macmillan

Abstract: Abstract Keep it simple. Ask the right questions. Move fast. Learn. Get it done. Being an expert in international trade is different from possessing expertise in design or in some other trade, and yet similarities exist that we can compare. It is important to define the elements we are seeking. Focusing on individuals in the selection process is a key factor in how the future can be shaped. First, we need to analyze the job and the people to be trained: We should ask what people need to know to perform well on the job. How much relevant prior knowledge do they each have? What is each person’s motivation? What is the perceived value of their training?
