"Alex Mandossian Answers the In Search Of Heroes Program Questions 'How Important Is Loyalty.?'" by Ralph Zuranski
Another thing I will choose, and I will die for, is the sense of loyalty from friends and colleagues.
I believe a deal is easier to find. A good relationship is not. Finding someone with common sense and loyalty is in the top one percentile.
So, looking and hunting for this, and I have, I feel like I have a great team of people. They have made the cut and I have to stick to my agreements. Otherwise, I am hypocritical under pressure, if I’m not maintaining what I’m looking for.
I will give up a deal if it means sacrificing a relationship. I will not do a deal if it’s going to hurt a relationship.
I’ve gone as far as telling someone I am going into competition with them. Unknown to me, I didn’t know that they were in the deal.
I told them “Hey, im going to do this deal. Do you have a problem with it?” They said, “Yes. I do have a problem with it.” I stopped and they went on to make a lot of money and I didn’t.
There have been situations where they went into competition with me after they knew that I was doing what I was doing. They didn’t ask me. They ended up making a lot of money as a result of the sweat off my back. But, you know what? Its not a conditional thing when I’m calling them up and I say “I’m going in to competition with you.” Or, “We are doing the same thing, do you mind?” They’re giving me “Yes, I do mind.”
