Culture vs. Capability

By editor on February 20, 2018 — 1 min read

Culture is about the kinds of people you work with. Capability is about what they’re actually good at. And what I would tell you is that culture wins every time. It’s always amazing to me that we hear of stories of teams that have a better culture beating other teams that are either smarter, or bigger, or faster… and that’s the story of entrepreneurship as well. Culture always beats capability.
