Yes, faith is an important part of hiring and building a team–having faith and trusting others is a requirement if you want your business to grow. But there are also ways to be much more strategic about hiring, so you’re not just relying on a hope and a prayer when you’re looking to bring on a new team member.

It requires a mindset shift of sorts: moving from a (sometimes) panicked rush of “let’s just get someone in place right away,” to being strategic and focusing more on candidates’ unique strengths and how well they match up to the responsibilities of the role.

Check out this week’s video to learn how to focus on hiring the RIGHT people, which of course helps you to save effort, money and time in the long run. I’d also like to hear from you: what have your hiring experiences been like, and how can you use what I’ve shared to improve your own hiring process? Where do you need to tweak your procedures based on these best practices? Let me know in the comments!
