As a business leader, people are your most important investment, so we are always on the hunt for people – the right people – to bring into our organization. We know that investing in a great person will give you a far greater return of time and money than almost everything else, but yet so many companies hit a ceiling when it comes to getting to that next level of hiring great leaders and employees. This week, we discuss how to know if you are in your own way when it comes to hiring, if your fear or ego is setting you back from bringing on a rockstar hire, and how our Career Visioning process can help.
In this episode, you will learn about:
- How to know if you are in your own way when hiring talent.
- How to make the best hire for a return on investment with both your time and money.
- What holds people back from bringing on the best talent? It may surprise you.
- The expectations and demand that comes with a hire in a higher bracket.
- How to break out of the trap of thinking you should hire people for the lowest amount of money possible.
