In this episode I discuss: Getting the right people on your team. Transforming your business through the people you hire. Having the right mind frame around what to do when you have made a poor choice. Three key strategies for rebounding from a bad hire. Elevating your leadership as you hire. My Favorite Excerpt From The Episode TIME: 00:14:54 (41 Seconds) Debriefing is not from a place of beating yourself up. It's not about making you wrong or making them wrong. It's simply asking the question Why did this person work well here? Why did this person not work well here? And sometimes those answers are going to be self-evident, right? Sometimes there were some huge red flags that you saw that you just chose to ignore because you were desperate. But a lot of times there are things that you didn't even know that you needed until that person came into your company and you saw, Oh yes, we absolutely have to have someone who has X. And when a person does not have X, that person is not going to be effective for us in the business.   Book To Reference: The Four Agreements by: Don Miguel Ruiz   Contact Me: Text Us at 908 292 3524 Text Retreat to know more about the upcoming one.
