𝗣𝗮𝘆𝗽𝗮𝗹 𝗖𝗼-𝗳𝗼𝘂𝗻𝗱𝗲𝗿 𝗠𝗮𝘅 𝗟𝗲𝘃𝗰𝗵𝗶𝗻 𝗲𝘅𝗽𝗹𝗮𝗶𝗻𝘀 𝘄𝗵𝘆 𝗕-𝗽𝗹𝗮𝘆𝗲𝗿𝘀 𝗵𝗶𝗿𝗲 𝗖-𝗽𝗹𝗮𝘆𝗲𝗿𝘀 Steve Jobs once said, “A-players hire A-players, and B-players hire C-players.” But why? Max Levchin, co-founder of PayPal and Affirm, explains that the real reason isn’t just competence—it’s fear. A-players seek out top talent because they thrive on challenge. They want people who push them, question them, and make them better. B-players, however, fall into two categories. Some are hardworking and improve over time. Others, driven by insecurity, take a different path. They fear being exposed, so they seek control—moving into management, hiring weaker employees, and creating environments where mediocrity feels safe. This is how great startups lose momentum. The wrong B-players don’t just slow things down; they dilute ambition, lower standards, and turn high-performance teams into average ones. The best teams aren’t built on talent alone but on mindset. A-players embrace discomfort and growth. The right B-players work to become better. The wrong ones? They protect their own position at the cost of everyone else. A single wrong hire can reshape your entire culture. Choose wisely. Follow Vishu Bheda for more valuable startup insights from the world's best founders!
