Michael discusses the importance of aligning hiring practices with core values to maintain company culture.
In this episode, Michael shares a hard lesson from the early years of Half a Bubble Out, when a hire who looked right on paper created years of cultural friction that affected far more people than anyone realized. That experience revealed a powerful leadership principle: hire, train, and fire to your Core Values. If you're building a team, growing a company, or trying to protect the culture you've worked hard to create, this conversation will challenge the way you think about your core values and how they relate to hiring, accountability, and leadership. 📧 Subscribe to The Leadership Contrarian: https://info.halfabubbleout.com/leadership-contrarian-newsletter
