You know the guy in the office everyone likes, although they are not quite sure what he does. Mention his name and any employee will go “Oh (blank) great guy, super person” and you won’t find anyone with a bad word about them them.
In all the hoopla surrounding the announcement of his appointment as the new general manager of the Philadelphia 76ers, you will not find a single negative word about the 17-year NBA vet as a person.
And do not dismiss his likability as one of the factors in being hired.
