Transcript:
There's a management model that groups people according to four criteria. Clever, hardworking, stupid and lazy. Here lazy means having a rational determination not to carry out unnecessary tasks. It doesn't mean trying to avoid work all together. Most people display two of these characteristics, and the most valuable people are those who are both clever and lazy.
