I really liked his distinction between A, B and C-team players. This could be a really good framework for recruiting in an ambitious startup.

I hope everyone here who is praising the A, B, C-player framework recognizes that it comes from Jack Welch’s much criticized Vitality Curve system.

I don’t see much similarity here, other than the use of those three letters and the idea that Cs should be removed from the company.

The MrBeast As are rated on their ability to learn - which is surprisingly a characteristic that’s not mentioned in the Welch model.

MrBeast Bs are As who haven’t got there yet - Welch Bs are not expected to get there.

MrBeast Cs are reasonably capable but are missing out on that crucial learning instinct - again, not mentioned by Welch, who has Cs who are incompetent procrastinators.
