(someone who works with a lot of uncooperative smart people, smarter than me at least) permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] afraid_of_zombies@lemmy.world 7 points 2 years ago* Don't. I manage smart people. Divide the territory up. Getting them to work together at the edges. People are territorial, smart people are harder because they can give good reasons why they should get more territory. Everyone has their zone of control and everyone is happy. Also reminder: it is almost always better to have someone in pissing out vs out and pissing in. permalink fedilink source parent
