After working for several companies…

In most organizations, only ~10% of people are high performers. They have great attitudes, are self-starters, smart, and great to work with.

25% are hard-working and competent and carry most of the company’s workload.

About 50% are lazy and just cross the minimum standard of work.

15% are completely incompetent and shouldn’t be at the company.

Many in this bottom 65% are gone at 5:01 PM despite being on a performance improvement plan.

There’s another key distinction between the top 35% and the bottom 65%.

Their attitude.
