Hiring Super A-Players with Steve Newcomb of Powerset
April 15, 2022 00:12 - 29 minutes - 41.1 MBLet’s talk about why your company is not stacked with A-players. It is not because you cannot afford them.

So much time is invested into these activities. Yet, hiring is the most critical component of building a successful business. In fact, most investors' decisions are heavily influenced by the...

Building a Performance Based Service Organization with Johnny Robinson of Orange Window Cleaning
March 24, 2022 19:11 - 23 minutes - 32.9 MBToday I’d like to start with a question: What if you could 15x your company in 24 months? We all understand that this is virtually impossible as a solopreneur. As delegation creates the space for growth. It is very possible for you to 15x your business by dedicating yourself to becoming really good at hiring. This starts with changing your attitude. “I hate hiring”, or “I’m not good at hiring” or “I'll delegate this to someone else” will not get you where you want to go. It also sets you ...

How to Hire in Three Conversations with Nick Livingston of Honeit Software
March 11, 2022 04:56 - 24 minutes - 34 MB10 business days is the optimal time to bring an interview process to a successful outcome. The way to achieve this is to tighten timelines from stage to stage and cut down the number of people involved in the process. Now I know what you are thinking, that more people should be involved. Which is incorrect. The reason we involve more people in the interview process is because we value their “opinion” or “input” on the individual. But opinion has no value when it comes to making a hiring ...

March 03, 2022 22:48 - 23 minutes - 32.8 MBThe two biggest complaints I hear today from entrepreneurs are “I can't find good people” and “when I hire people, the skills don’t match up”.

February 24, 2022 20:41 - 19 minutes - 26.7 MBTwo people sit down in an interview. What happens next??? What happens is that, well, we have no idea what happens.

Juggling Fundraising While Building a Strong Team with Bruce Watanabe

The Danger in Skipping the Interview for Internal Referrals with Todd Ausherman
December 28, 2021 19:36 - 25 minutes - 21.7 MBMost of us have a tendency to fast track anyone who comes through an internal referral.
