I Ain't Scared to be Fired

I was doing a little research on something the other night and came across a list of things to look for when hiring someone.  One of the things on the list was:

Hire those who aren't afraid to be fired

It made me stop and think...then re-read the list...then think some more.  I came to the conclusion that

I agree

Hire those who aren't afraid to be fired

These people will have energy, excitement, drive, ambition.  The will challenge the status quo - challenge you as the leader - and make you re-think things and force you to be sure in the reasons for your decisions.  They aren't afraid to take a step out there - take a risk - in order to take the company to a higher level.

At least that is how I interpreted the statement.

Of course it may be that those that ain't scared to be fired might just be total bums...
