The secret to success is simple, says Academy Award-winning actor Will Smith: Surround yourself with great people.
Success is "a team sport," Smith, 54, said on a recent episode of "Hart to Heart," comedian Kevin Hart's Peacock talk show.
The manager's advice was an example of support and collective decision-making between Smith and his team, family and friends, Smith said.
What Smith calls a squad, Lisa Skeete Tatum — founder and CEO of Landit, a career consulting platform — calls a "personal board of directors."
It's an essential factor in having a fulfilling, successful career, Tatum told CNBC Make It last year.
