'Those are the people that you're giving raises to, even though they may not have asked for it, because you know and you recognize very quickly that you can't live without them.' According to Cuban, those are the people 'who know their role.' They're important because they'll 'die for the ball and rebound.' While they may not get all the credit for wins, they're the ones that 'you can't live without,' he said. To offer an example, he refers to the importance of having 'glue guys' on a basketball team. 'You've got to hire the right people for the right roles.' They're not a culture fit, because you can't have conflict on what the vision of the company is,' he said. 'Unless you're trying to put them in a visionary position, they're a problem. There also may be employees who are 'visionaries,' Cuban said, who jump to 'G, H and I' tasks without being asked. 'You want some of that, but you don't want too much of it, because they may not get the A, B and C done.' Some employees want to go above and beyond to accomplish 'D, E and F' tasks, he said. You still need 9-to-5-ers - you need people where, if you tell them to do A, B and C, they do A, B and C perfectly,' Cuban explained. 'You don't want to necessarily pay for somebody that's going to cause a lot of stress. These kind of employees will be 'stress-reducers,' he said. When deciding who to hire, Cuban recommends asking yourself whether the candidate's personality, goals and aspirations align with your company's 'core competencies.' This is important, he said, because hiring the wrong person can lead to unnecessary 'headaches.'
