Smart enough and dumb enough!

Big News Nujobi just presented at "The Hatchery" start-up event at Rockefeller center in NYC. Our presenter was , yours truly , me , Mark Nejmeh. In all the years I have run a business I know exactly what I am good at. I am great at motivating people, great at hiring and managing people, great at business strategy, and of course great at product development. I really suck at presenting to an audience and paperwork. So with this blog I am here to report that I was "DUMB ENOUGH" to do the presentation to 4 seasoned VC's. Its ok , I mean I was completely scatter brained and did not my get my business plan across and I really stunk up the place.

Smart Enough, Yes I am "SMART ENOUGH" now to have been looking for a CEO and I think maybe I have one lined up. If not this person then I have a few more ideas of who might fit. The main criteria I am looking for in a CEO is great leadership, capable of handling the big picture, the politics, strength in character, honesty, blah blah, and a Great Presenter. <\p> I think I found a great CEO and in fact a great person with deep concern for doing right for this great company (Nujobi). Time will tell, but one thing for sure I will not be making many more 5 minute pitches unless I really have to.

I like employees that get the job done including when I am the employee. Think of it this way, I would rather write the song than perform it.
Mark Nejmeh
