About this episode

This episode discusses the importance of hiring for talent and character rather than just industry-specific experience.

In this quick, five-minute Pocket Sized Pep Talk, I’ll explore why the best hires often come from proven experience and character, not just familiarity with your industry, and how to recognize the true indicators of long-term success.
