The Good, Bad & Ugly: Hiring & Recruiting Mistakes for Team Leaders to Avoid

If you’re not intentional about recruiting, culture, and training, you will find yourself with a team that doesn’t fit your vision. What are the 3 biggest mistakes that team leaders make? At what point should you consider bringing someone on if you’re a solo agent? What can you do to keep the quality of your recruits predictable and repeatable?

On this episode, I talk about the biggest missteps agents take when it comes to bringing people on to their teams, and what you can do to prevent them.

 

Three Things You'll Learn:

• You must take a content marketing approach to recruiting so that you attract potential hires rather than have to chase them down.
• To succeed long term as a team leader, you must have really great recruiting marketing and a system to handle inbound recruiting inquiries. 
• Your core values should guide your recruiting and be something your team has regular conversations about.

 

There are three big mistakes team leaders often make when it comes to hiring. The first is that they have no strong value proposition outside of providing leads, so they can’t attract quality talent. Second, they dismiss team culture or fail to weave it into recruiting and accountability. Third, they lack a system for hiring, which means they can’t recruit in a predictable and organized manner. Addressing these gaps is important for the health and success of any team.
