What's up everyone, this is Alex Lieberman, co-founder and executive chairman of Morning Brew.

Welcome back to Founder's Journal, My Personal Audio Diary, where I give you the business

builder the tools you need to think better in order to build better, whether that's building

a business, a team, or a new product.

Today, I am talking about the traits that make the best people I have ever worked with

so damn good.

Let's hop into it.

So when you think about the best people you've ever worked with in your life, there are

just like the obvious traits that we all talk about it.

It's like three or four things that everyone says when they talk about great workers.

They talk about great work ethic.

They talk about someone who knows how to prioritize really well.

They talk about someone who's abundantly curious and a voracious learner, and they talk

about someone who's just a force of nature, how they pull an entire company with them,

rather than you having to push them.

And I've talked about these in past episodes, and they're really important.

Don't get me wrong.

I'm sure I'll talk about them in future episodes.

But on this episode, I want to focus on something different.

I want to focus on the non-obvious traits, the things that the best people I've ever worked

with do that maybe aren't the most classic or traditional traits that you read about

in a business book.
