Richard Milligan argues that thriving microeconomies exist within struggling larger economies, so recruiters should target winning micro-segments as a buffer against downturns. He also says the best performers always win, and becoming the best in your industry secures success across multiple years.
So here's your hope, because the challenge for you is become this person. But here's the hope in this, is that there's always a microeconomy that exists in a macroeconomy. There's people in a macroeconomy, it can be down and it can be failing, and you will always find people whose microeconomy is winning. And the leader who has this mindset, day one mindset, operates in a microeconomy. It is a way to insulate your success. The second premise in this, this is the second thing that will never change, is this: is that the best always win. They have in the past and they always will in the future. When you make a commitment to this, you're making a commitment to being the best in your industry, and that is an insurance policy against you winning not just this year but in future years.
