KEY TAKEAWAYS:
A successful organization happens outside of the office

A successful organization is made through innovation and collaboration. It’s when everyone is treated fairly, and their needs are being met. When that happens, there’s a lower turnover rate and that’s important in the marketplace today.

Reputation is everything

The worst thing you can do is go out there and oversell and underdeliver. Sometimes it’s hard in startups because there isn’t the money to develop an idea entirely, but you don’t want to start a company with a bad reputation by not following through with what you say you will.

Hire for Fit, Train for Skill

Potential new hires should be speaking 50% of the time, asking you questions about the company. You should be determining if they are a good fit within their organization, but the interviewee should also be determining if the company is a good fit for them.

Great Cultures are Made

Start by hiring great people who are passionate. Leaders are approachable and always willing to listen to feedback.

DISCUSSION QUESTIONS:

What type of person are you looking to recruit? How does your current recruiting process mirror what you’re looking for in new hires? How can you update your process to fit your recruiting goals better?
Are you living your values? What changes do you need to make in your life or company to showcase that you believe in your value proposition?
