About this episode

In this episode, Brandon Turner shares the 10 Commandments of Hiring and Managing a Rockstar Team based on his experiences and lessons learned from hiring mistakes.

My very first employee had never used a computer. I hired her to be my digital assistant. Day one, I said, "Go to your desktop," and she asked what that was. That was hire number one. It got more complicated from there. I've read a lot about hiring. Talked to a lot of people about it. But mostly I've just done it wrong enough times to figure out what actually works. And in this episode, I'm laying out the whole thing: the 10 Commandments of Hiring and Managing a Rockstar Team. We talk about why your first hire is probably not who you think it is. How to run candidates through a process that filters out the wrong people before you're three months in and miserable. What real onboarding looks like versus what most people do, which is basically nothing. And why recruiting is something you should be doing all the time, not just when you're desperate and stressed and need someone yesterday. Hiring is leverage. Get it right, and it compounds. Get it wrong, and you'll feel it for a long time. 📚 Book mentioned: Buy Back Your Time by Dan Martell → https://www.amazon.com/Buy-Back-Your-Time-Entrepreneurial/dp/0593539257 Traction by Gino Wickman →…
