Startups are like roller coasters, find people who will enjoy the ride. 🎢
In all of the hurdles, twists and turns that a startup faces, hiring people who are passionate about your company is going to be the key to growth and success.
If employees are not passionate about the company culture or vision, they will fail to execute the strategic plans. 👎
📌 So how do you ensure that you’re hiring the right people?
There’s this belief that when hiring, you should focus on the candidates’ skills and experience above all else.
I believe startup founders should instead hire for passion & character, not just skill.
That’s not to say skills and experience aren’t important, because they are.
Yet, skills can be learned on the job. Experience can be gained with a bit of time.
Passion cannot be learned.
It exists or it doesn’t. 🚀
