In Hindi, there is a phrase "Sher ki sawari" that aptly describes what it takes to lead techies. Well, englisg translation would be "ride a lion". Brightest of techies are very fast in thinking and action. They are also deadly. Like a lion ride, you would enjoy the speed as long as u r riding, but you also know that once you get down, you would be the feast.
If you hire some of the best engineers, you have to prevent a situation where the lion stops running or you tame them to not be so ferocious. I think former is better, while later is practiced at most of places. What is required is that you be paranoid about lion stopping. That means you are constantly on toes thinking and acting to let the ride continue. One question that you should ask everyday is : What would prevent lion from stopping?
Here are few things that stop techies,
1. When there is nothing challenging?
2. When they don't feel that rewards are adequate?
3. They have burnt-down themselves.
