The Self-Fulfilling Prophecy of a Bad Hire

from We Live to Build

Ever hired someone you were excited about, only to be disappointed by their performance? The problem might not have been them—it might have been you. This video breaks down a toxic cycle called The Self-Fulfilling Prophecy of a Bad Hire. Business strategist Daniella Genas explains how a founder's lack of trust leads to a lack of systems, which in turn causes new hires to underperform, "proving" the founder's initial fears were right. This is an essential guide for any "maxed-out" founder struggling to build a team. You'll learn the powerful analogy of why elite athletes have coaches but entrepreneurs don't, why you must build processes from day one, and her actionable "VISA" framework (Vision, Innovation, Strategy, Systems, Accountability) for creating a business that can scale beyond you.
