We need more people with his integrity maybe, but not his values. You can't run entire societies on pure capitalism. Like America is a hybrid of socialism and capitalism. There are several key sectors in an economy that simply must serve the citizens of it's country primarily, and seek either profit or solvency second. Like healthcare for instance.
I could not agree more with Mr O'Leary with his statement that the "moment you realize it's not going to work out" is the moment you should take action (fire/move/etc) with an employee. I stayed at a big company for over 11 years, innovating and building, and didn't realize that my Director and last Supervisor saw no future for me within probably the 1st year in the department. Had they been honest and forthright right away I would have found a different job, possibly sold my house and moved. Instead, the housing crash of 2008 caused my house to drop to 1/2 what I owed, and my well-being ultimately took a life-altering hit. I was financially stuck and sadly stayed with the company for several more years. He was spot on that managers such as these are weak. Always be honest and forthright, but remain compassionate too.
He is absolutely right about putting the business first. Keeping a struggling family member or friend as an employee demoralized other employees and creates a cancerous situation in the company.

@Matt L Success and survival is all that matters. A good manager does only what's best for the success and growth of the company/industry. If that means high turnover and firings, so be it.
@Matt L I was just providing additional information to highlight the contrary position that Mr.Wonderful expressed which is not being afraid to fire for the betterment of the company/corporation.
And also say Wal-Mart for example they're hiring and firing all the time for things from attendance to stealing or overall just not doing they're tasks.
42:14 is one of the best in the whole thing. This has always been my personal opinion either. Because without sales you will never have production, accounting, finance or R & D.
Smokey From Friday Marc Ecko did a full show on each commandment in Biggies song and relates it to business. It’s actually really good. You can see it on the skillshare website.
@John Galt Dough Make money through delivering a valuable product or service, not merely "get the money first." As O'Leary said - "First be focused on your customers, employees and shareholders."
I'm glad i didn't have to fire that many people in my company, but whenever I did, i made sure that they understood exactly why. Business is truly ruthless, and too many morons think they should tell a business owner how to run the business. I've watched a bunch of businesses fail from sheer incompetence.
Phenomenal. I've seen many a business die because they keep dancing with the one who brung you. My father fired his office manager who started with him after 16 years because she forgot who owned the business. A hard choice but a necessary one.

I like what the Q&A section has to offer: 1. How does Kevin make difficult decision and the process he takes? Ans: Trust your Gut 2. How to talk to people who are at the company to do good and not make money (profit + healthcare/education = Dirty word?)? Ans: Business must make money and be sustainable so that the companies can hire people with the right expertise to do the job well in education/healthcare which is turn becomes the contribution of doing good. 3. Chasing opportunity or chasing passion, which matters most? Ans:Everybody has passion, it is the execution that matters. 4. How to break investor's preconceived notions and show them what really matters as an entrepreneur? Ans: That is not important, just tell the investor the acquisition cost because that is what matters 99% of the time. What kind of characteristics and team dynamics do you look in a team before you invest in it? Ans: Speak to the head of sales first and you will know all you need to know. Then speak to the CEO, if the CEO know less, then as an investor Kevin knows who to fire, and it is not the head of sales.
hsea s I think he is much better than Ramsey. He doesn't behave like a raving lunatic. He's stern and stoic philanthropist who appears mean because he tells the truth.
Imagine that getting fired comes with respect and ownership, a legitimate reason why, a hefty severance package and a commitment to find you another job...there is a good reason why he is at the level of business he is.
this guy probably full of bs. this is all publicity. maybe he offers good severance and mental health and few months of benefits. but that commitment to finding another job is most likely just a review of resume by some local recruiters who when they know you were fired or laidoff would ghost you in seconds. if he cared enough about low performers, he would work towards improvement plants for them. real pip to get them in shape. because some people are passionate about the work who need more time to do things.
@@thedevilsadvocate3710 that's what im saying. chances are good the last bit of communication you receive from employer will be the meeting in which you are being let go. after that you are strangers. colleagues will pretend you never existed. this is big screen bs they are selling.
Would a business owner ever fire a customer? Why not? The ROI that 1 customer brings to a business is pennies on the Dollar compared to 1 good employee. This is a fact that most business owners don't understand. I get that 80% of employees are garbage and don't have a good ROI for the business, but those 20% of employees who do are FAR more valuable than 1 or 2 customers are. We have come to a point that employees are so devalued in the eyes of employers that they treat them like crap (both in pay and demeanor) and most businesses will bend over backwards to make 1 problematic customer happy. Business owners have lost sight about how valuable good employees are and this is why most businesses fail.
Damn, Kevin is ruthless in business. Imagine how many founders of companies he's fired. Imagine all your hard work you put in to founding a business and your investor comes in and removes you from the company you built.
Imagine he fires you as the founder and replaces you with a better manager, and you still get rich and wealthy. Consider that? It's about what's best for the business.
Consider the fact that as the founder of a company, no one will ever own more than 49% of my company except me. Good luck firing the main shareholder with automatic veto powers.
+Political Love. While I agree with you, he still makes a lot of good points in terms of what it takes to build a business and keep it. And sometimes, if a CEO is an issue, they need to move to a Chairmanship and let someone else take over, even if temporarily.
A players hire A players. B players hire C players. C players hire D players. So we must ask? If A players hire A players,. then how do B players ever get hired?! Because of the VC's who fund them, after replacing the founders.
Yeah it would. A democratic socialism. No one should be allowed to scrape money off the hard working backs of others. All companies should be democratic and employees vote on everything. Imagine that. Where employees get a fair share of the work they do, can invest their earnings, can make healthy decisions for their families, their communities and their environment. Instead we have sociopaths running things.
As a rising business person myself, the only way to go is to fend for yourself. People aren’t trying to help you, they’re trying to better themselves. Selfish is what I’m called, but that’s too bad
because on sharktank he isnt there to explain things, he is there to listen to others explain things. still he is most people favorite shark. he said quotable shits. ur right tho we learn so much in his interviews. i beleive guys like him and steve jobs are smarter than bill gates, smart people know how to explain stuff. also i dont think hes as rough as some people say he is. the things he says are true and also he knows how to be clear but not trying to explain more than necessary because if you dont get it then its useless for you anyways ''words to the wise''
@@transeeyou885 I disagree with you when it comes to Bill Gates, I think he is very smart and kind. Besides that, I agree with everything else you said.
I called Kevin one day to pitch him a transportation deal that had been pitched to me and he was very polite and he asked me to contact Alex. We spoke for less than a minute many years ago and I remember clearly the nature of the man on the phone. What an absolute pleasure he was.
I wish he address one of the key contributors of nepitism. Trust. Alot of people hire fire or friends because they think they can trust those more than a stranger hired. It'd be nice if he touched on that.
Having to fire someone is the second most difficult task in business. Empathy helps, but does not fix everything. Being honest, succinct, as empathetic as possible, and patient is key to getting the point across with credibility and with respect.

I wrote down ALL of the reasons I hated MLM's below and found ONE that solves ALL of the reasons to hate MLM's!!! PROBLEMS: 1) Recruiting-only is the business model, and members are forced to buy stuff they can get at walmart for cheaper - that's just dishonest. 2) The products have cheap competition that work perfectly fine (walmart has shakes, makeup, food containers), which means less selling for you! 3) Per #2, you are forced to keep buying overpriced BS to stay in the business. 4) Per #2: MLM members are forced to cry, do jumping jacks, lie, etc., to make the sale because... there is no reason to buy it from them; it's at Walmart. 5) Inventory: I don't want boxes of overpriced crap in my house. 6) In person demos: no thanks - gas is expensive and traffic stinks 7) Saturation of salespeople: most people you approach have already been approached (plus can buy the crap at Walmart) 8) Need vs Want: No one actually needs this crap. 9) Lies about "your discount" as you 'buy in' to make you feel special. WHAT (so that the problems solved - below - make sense with context) What if the product gives both members and customers access to lawyers for $1/day? It/s mobile, not something you put in your body. Covers up to 300 hours of pre-trial/trial defense (you get sued - kid falls down your stairs), they write your will (easily $500 alone w/out it), you call with questions about where to start with something (advice), they will write letters to the DOT if a snowplow breaks your mailbox and you want payment for it, a small business owner needs legal docs reviewed before submitting (15 pages), you get a speeding ticket and want a lawyer to rep you in court and keep your driving record..... legal services that are pre-paid / free with the membership of less than $1/day? WHY IT SOLVES EVERY MLM HATRED PROBLEM 1) Recruiting: Let's say a member ONLY recruits. That's still perfect. Why? Because the EXACT people who join MLM's are folks who need money - those are the SAME people who benefit the MOST from the service as they could never afford a lawyer, but now they have prepaid legal services on speed dial, literally speed dial, and then, they help others to solve 2 problems at once (no money, no lawyer access). I.e. Your recruits ARE your best target market whose lives literally get better. BEAUTIFUL. 2) Lawyers are expensive. Now they are on speed dial with dozens of common lawyer services - from big to small - totally pre-paid = ease of mind. 3) Covered in #1, new members' lives are literally better and more secure now for less than $1/day. 4) No crying, jumping jacks, or lying. The product is a no-brainer and cannot be bought at Walmart. 5) It's mobile. 6) Zoom and automation. Your content becomes omnipotent marketing where your digital self is talking to people about it while you sleep. 7) Since you do not know anyone with this service (or very few), then clearly it is not oversaturated = tons of opportunity to make cash! 8) People need lawyers. Plain and simple. 9) It's one monthly price and reps cannot change it with a discount or an upsell. So why not make money with it? Click my link below! Let's make money together without my preying on your buying cheap crap every month!

Picking the best stocks requires a lot of factor and seems daunting for beginners. From my own point of view, you need to invest smartly if you need a good life. I made over $30,000 from an investment of $9,000.
Having a trading strategy removes the possibility making irrational decisions. Decisions are made based on predefined parameters that are developed with sound research. repetition of winning strategies is also essential. Trading with Mr Edwardo Gonzalez has enlightened me about the benefits of informed investments.

The guy is a muppet and kinda transparent. @18:30 he says he invests in women because they make him money. Money being the underling reason. Tomorrow when it is economically beneficial to go against women, that's exactly what he's going to do. Back to his main point. It has nothing to do with genders. Then he realizes he's getting a reception from the crowd, after claiming to get out the "whacking stick" when it comes to firing people, and goes off on some random tangent of how there should be more women in the workforce because they get him a better return on his money. Cute.
I just finished a book about women in STEM and will soon self publish. I hit the glass ceiling in a Director of QA/RA role. I have added reference to this video to the last chapter because it supports brain scan results by the Amen Clinic that indicate women may be better managers. I don't believe I want to go back to pharma/med device etc. because it's not possible to grow or rather climb into executive leadership. So, now, I must start my own business if I am to live up to my capability.

Please upload more interviews like this with people of this space! I d really appreciate it. This video had great value and I just love Kevin O Leary. I really look up to people like him.
"You don't want bad karma in business" 👏
This guy does not mince words. Very direct and no BS. We need more people like him.
There is no karma in business.
Just reputation
I’m meeting a lot of people who are awful people in business. They’re all going to end up homeless with their bad karma
“A manager or owner who has a high fire rate is not a good manager or owner despite the success or failure of a company”
Seems to work for low skill industries like mcdonalds or starbucks. Very high turnover but they seem to survive.
@Matt L Success and survival is all that matters. A good manager does only what's best for the success and growth of the company/industry. If that means high turnover and firings, so be it.
@Matt L I was just providing additional information to highlight the contrary position that Mr.Wonderful expressed which is not being afraid to fire for the betterment of the company/corporation.
I think thats not completely correct. Some people arent right for the job and can ruin ur business/or hurt its image.
And also say Wal-Mart for example they're hiring and firing all the time for things from attendance to stealing or overall just not doing they're tasks.
My favorite shark, raw and straight to the point. Great interview
Ok this video was free but taught me more about business than a finance course
42:14 is one of the best in the whole thing. This has always been my personal opinion either. Because without sales you will never have production, accounting, finance or R & D.
Kevin is probably my favorite shark. If you want the truth ask him, if you want a prize and hear your great ask the others
The truth and a chance of being belittled
Kevin O'Leary is so full of shit. If his lips are moving, he's lying. Today he's spewing zionist gynocentric crap.
A lot of Americans like verbally abusive assholes. Look at how much admiration Simon from American Idol and Judge Judy got.
I tell you the truth... you're*
Shark tank is a reality TV show not a business show. You need something slightly amusing at least when running a show like this.

i hope you can set your brains processing speed on 1.5 too, would not bet money on that. It is not only about understanding the words

@John Galt Dough Make money through delivering a valuable product or service, not merely "get the money first." As O'Leary said - "First be focused on your customers, employees and shareholders."
Its called greenwashing
@J D and how much are you worth good sir?
Or are you such a loser that you'd rather hate the entire system than to see someone be successful?
I'm glad i didn't have to fire that many people in my company, but whenever I did, i made sure that they understood exactly why. Business is truly ruthless, and too many morons think they should tell a business owner how to run the business.
I've watched a bunch of businesses fail from sheer incompetence.
Most people don't understand "Mr.Wounderful" he is a great business man.
Phenomenal. I've seen many a business die because they keep dancing with the one who brung you.
My father fired his office manager who started with him after 16 years because she forgot who owned the business.
A hard choice but a necessary one.

Thank you Harpreet!
I wish there was uncut version of each conversation, so we could learn more about how the negotiations really are conducted
Damn, I needed to hear this like two weeks ago. It's not about being cruel or mean to people it's about being focused on your business.
This is probably the most scared and excited I’ve ever felt watching a RUclips video and for it to be a very positive thing.
How could this possibly be scary? Very strange considering your name is "FEARLESSly observant"
I like what the Q&A section has to offer:
1. How does Kevin make difficult decision and the process he takes?
Ans: Trust your Gut
2. How to talk to people who are at the company to do good and not make money (profit + healthcare/education = Dirty word?)?
Ans: Business must make money and be sustainable so that the companies can hire people with the right expertise to do the job well in education/healthcare which is turn becomes the contribution of doing good.
3. Chasing opportunity or chasing passion, which matters most?
Ans:Everybody has passion, it is the execution that matters.
4. How to break investor's preconceived notions and show them what really matters as an entrepreneur?
Ans: That is not important, just tell the investor the acquisition cost because that is what matters 99% of the time.
What kind of characteristics and team dynamics do you look in a team before you invest in it?
Ans: Speak to the head of sales first and you will know all you need to know. Then speak to the CEO, if the CEO know less, then as an investor Kevin knows who to fire, and it is not the head of sales.
Amen!!!!!!!!! This is a performance based employees dream! Not having to worry about favoritism just my work
I love Kevin because he is so real and raw.
Business is about money! Either you make it or you don’t. Emotions be damned.
They couldn’t put a little table between the chairs for their waters.
i guest, they cut that from the budget. But for me , looks bad!

Haha!
It is not profitable
Really interesting interview ! I love the genuine comments from Kevin ! ... my style big time.

Imagine that getting fired comes with respect and ownership, a legitimate reason why, a hefty severance package and a commitment to find you another job...there is a good reason why he is at the level of business he is.
this guy probably full of bs. this is all publicity. maybe he offers good severance and mental health and few months of benefits. but that commitment to finding another job is most likely just a review of resume by some local recruiters who when they know you were fired or laidoff would ghost you in seconds. if he cared enough about low performers, he would work towards improvement plants for them. real pip to get them in shape. because some people are passionate about the work who need more time to do things.
No one, NO ONE cares after you are fired. Don't believe everything you see on your screen.
@@thedevilsadvocate3710 that's what im saying. chances are good the last bit of communication you receive from employer will be the meeting in which you are being let go. after that you are strangers. colleagues will pretend you never existed.
this is big screen bs they are selling.
This is all BS PR don't trust so easily bro, do your own analysis, no one cares about wether you exist or not after you are fired.
💯💯💯💯💯💯
Would a business owner ever fire a customer? Why not? The ROI that 1 customer brings to a business is pennies on the Dollar compared to 1 good employee. This is a fact that most business owners don't understand. I get that 80% of employees are garbage and don't have a good ROI for the business, but those 20% of employees who do are FAR more valuable than 1 or 2 customers are. We have come to a point that employees are so devalued in the eyes of employers that they treat them like crap (both in pay and demeanor) and most businesses will bend over backwards to make 1 problematic customer happy. Business owners have lost sight about how valuable good employees are and this is why most businesses fail.
Great questions asked in this interview!
Damn, Kevin is ruthless in business. Imagine how many founders of companies he's fired. Imagine all your hard work you put in to founding a business and your investor comes in and removes you from the company you built.
Imagine he fires you as the founder and replaces you with a better manager, and you still get rich and wealthy. Consider that? It's about what's best for the business.
RJ x
Consider the fact that as the founder of a company, no one will ever own more than 49% of my company except me. Good luck firing the main shareholder with automatic veto powers.
+Political Love. While I agree with you, he still makes a lot of good points in terms of what it takes to build a business and keep it. And sometimes, if a CEO is an issue, they need to move to a Chairmanship and let someone else take over, even if temporarily.
A players hire A players. B players hire C players. C players hire D players.
So we must ask? If A players hire A players,. then how do B players ever get hired?!
Because of the VC's who fund them, after replacing the founders.
Great chat !!! The purpose of a business is to SERVE THE COSTUMER !!!!! , TAKE CARE OF THE EMPLOYEES !!!, AND PAY BACK TO SHARE HOLDERS. Sweet !!!!!!
those are just words for dummies like you, in reality he is making millions while the employees are making dog shit. Sweet!!!!
I guess your Socialism would fix that. :)
Yeah it would. A democratic socialism. No one should be allowed to scrape money off the hard working backs of others. All companies should be democratic and employees vote on everything. Imagine that. Where employees get a fair share of the work they do, can invest their earnings, can make healthy decisions for their families, their communities and their environment. Instead we have sociopaths running things.
Democratic companies ? Hehe...
@@RachelTScott that would be horse shit. Employees already get their fair share, they get what they are worth in the market.
it is a good conversation , and I also think every entrepreneur should have two telephonies , one is for family ,and another is for others
It's a must :)
As the CEO, my job is to fill every key position with people who can do the job better than I can. If they don't the fault lies at my feet.
As a rising business person myself, the only way to go is to fend for yourself. People aren’t trying to help you, they’re trying to better themselves. Selfish is what I’m called, but that’s too bad
He doesn't do himself justice on (celebrity) Shark Tank. I like hearing him when he's in interviews.
because on sharktank he isnt there to explain things, he is there to listen to others explain things. still he is most people favorite shark. he said quotable shits. ur right tho we learn so much in his interviews. i beleive guys like him and steve jobs are smarter than bill gates, smart people know how to explain stuff. also i dont think hes as rough as some people say he is. the things he says are true and also he knows how to be clear but not trying to explain more than necessary because if you dont get it then its useless for you anyways ''words to the wise''
Its because he does not have to, he is a real person a realist, he is not looking for aproval he earns aproval
@@transeeyou885 I disagree with you when it comes to Bill Gates, I think he is very smart and kind. Besides that, I agree with everything else you said.

Ahah same there’s a reason you notice the sharks a lot of times wanna hear from mr wonderful perspective before they even go in on a deal
Same same 😂
I called Kevin one day to pitch him a transportation deal that had been pitched to me and he was very polite and he asked me to contact Alex. We spoke for less than a minute many years ago and I remember clearly the nature of the man on the phone. What an absolute pleasure he was.
How did it go? What was the result of your efforts? And if it didn't work out, at least you put forth the effort to ask the right people
"There's nothing worse than vision all day long." Perfect.

Hahahaha wtf I'm so high and it scared the shit out of me
Hahahahaha
Kevin is one of my favorite sharks. He knows his stuff.
I wish he address one of the key contributors of nepitism. Trust.
Alot of people hire fire or friends because they think they can trust those more than a stranger hired. It'd be nice if he touched on that.
It’s true though you can’t trust foreigners
Having to fire someone is the second most difficult task in business. Empathy helps, but does not fix everything. Being honest, succinct, as empathetic as possible, and patient is key to getting the point across with credibility and with respect.
I enjoyed and learned so much from his talk. I was so hooked I forgot I had food on the stove.LOL. Everything is okay:)
To the point and no BS. But I gotta say what's with the socks!!!
Such a smart guy, definitely my favorite shark
Imagine if he said "if I had the option I would invest in only men" the women and media would go insane.

100k applicants on shark tank, wow!
Yeah, sad eh... Ö
I wrote down ALL of the reasons I hated MLM's below and found ONE that solves ALL of the reasons to hate MLM's!!!
PROBLEMS:
1) Recruiting-only is the business model, and members are forced to buy stuff they can get at walmart for cheaper - that's just dishonest.
2) The products have cheap competition that work perfectly fine (walmart has shakes, makeup, food containers), which means less selling for you!
3) Per #2, you are forced to keep buying overpriced BS to stay in the business.
4) Per #2: MLM members are forced to cry, do jumping jacks, lie, etc., to make the sale because... there is no reason to buy it from them; it's at Walmart.
5) Inventory: I don't want boxes of overpriced crap in my house.
6) In person demos: no thanks - gas is expensive and traffic stinks
7) Saturation of salespeople: most people you approach have already been approached (plus can buy the crap at Walmart)
8) Need vs Want: No one actually needs this crap.
9) Lies about "your discount" as you 'buy in' to make you feel special.
WHAT (so that the problems solved - below - make sense with context)
What if the product gives both members and customers access to lawyers for $1/day? It/s mobile, not something you put in your body. Covers up to 300 hours of pre-trial/trial defense (you get sued - kid falls down your stairs), they write your will (easily $500 alone w/out it), you call with questions about where to start with something (advice), they will write letters to the DOT if a snowplow breaks your mailbox and you want payment for it, a small business owner needs legal docs reviewed before submitting (15 pages), you get a speeding ticket and want a lawyer to rep you in court and keep your driving record..... legal services that are pre-paid / free with the membership of less than $1/day?
WHY IT SOLVES EVERY MLM HATRED PROBLEM
1) Recruiting: Let's say a member ONLY recruits. That's still perfect. Why? Because the EXACT people who join MLM's are folks who need money - those are the SAME people who benefit the MOST from the service as they could never afford a lawyer, but now they have prepaid legal services on speed dial, literally speed dial, and then, they help others to solve 2 problems at once (no money, no lawyer access). I.e. Your recruits ARE your best target market whose lives literally get better. BEAUTIFUL.
2) Lawyers are expensive. Now they are on speed dial with dozens of common lawyer services - from big to small - totally pre-paid = ease of mind.
3) Covered in #1, new members' lives are literally better and more secure now for less than $1/day.
4) No crying, jumping jacks, or lying. The product is a no-brainer and cannot be bought at Walmart.
5) It's mobile.
6) Zoom and automation. Your content becomes omnipotent marketing where your digital self is talking to people about it while you sleep.
7) Since you do not know anyone with this service (or very few), then clearly it is not oversaturated = tons of opportunity to make cash!
8) People need lawyers. Plain and simple.
9) It's one monthly price and reps cannot change it with a discount or an upsell.
So why not make money with it? Click my link below! Let's make money together without my preying on your buying cheap crap every month!

Investing in Bitcoin is the number one thing one should be doing right now, although there are lots of risks the best way to invest is through cryptocurrency and Forex.
There are also organizations that help maintain your interest and protect you from the unnecessary risk which you can't predict on your own.

Decisions are made based on predefined parameters that are developed with sound research. repetition of winning strategies is also essential.

The world of investing can be cold and hard. But if you do thorough research and keep your head on straight, your chances of long-term success are good.

For sure definitely agree!
The guy is a muppet and kinda transparent. @18:30 he says he invests in women because they make him money. Money being the underling reason.
Tomorrow when it is economically beneficial to go against women, that's exactly what he's going to do. Back to his main point. It has nothing to do with genders.
Then he realizes he's getting a reception from the crowd, after claiming to get out the "whacking stick" when it comes to firing people, and goes off on some random tangent of how there should be more women in the workforce because they get him a better return on his money.
Cute.
