433: Four Tips for Better Hiring with Sarah Olivieri

from Inspired Nonprofit Leadership

Episode Description The right team is the thing nearly every organization comes back to, whatever else they're working on. Funding, scale, board questions, they all run through the people in the seats. And the way to get the right people is to hire well. In this episode, Sarah shares four tips for better hiring, drawn from her own process and the work she does with the organizations she coaches. In This Episode, You'll Learn Why building a list of people you'd love to work with before you ever have an opening, and how a name you noted years ago can become your next great hire How to write a job post that reads like a love letter to your ideal candidate instead of a dull list of requirements Why the job post title works like a headline, and how to study other postings to make yours stand out How a 90-day trial period protects both you and the new hire Who This Episode Is For • Leaders who want a stronger, more intentional hiring process • Anyone who has held onto a hire that wasn't the right fit longer than they meant to • Anyone who thinks this episode doesn't apply because they aren't hiring right now About Your Host, Sarah Olivieri Bold, strategic, and refreshingly human… Sarah Olivieri is the go-to expert for conversations on aligned leadership, outcome delegation, and sustainable growth.She brings wit, warmth, and real-world wisdom to mission-driven founders, visionary CEOs, and change-makers who want more clarity, more joy, and more results. Most leaders hit a wall when success depends on them holding it all together. Sarah helps them change that by redefining leadership around outcomes instead of activity, empowering teams to own results that scale and freeing leaders to focus on the vision that drives them. A former director of three nonprofits and founder of five businesses, she has a rare ability to spot opportunity where others see chaos, shift stuck patterns, and build organizations that support both legacy and life. Sarah leads with the same mindset that made her an award-winning sailor: iterate on what works, stay focused in the storm, and never forget the joy of the journey.
