HIRE
Speed is Everything.
Top talent is off the market in 14 days or less. Unless you're offering over $300K and a personal chauffeur, you're not that special.
What Usually Happens:
- Job description stalls in approval limbo
- Interview scheduling takes forever
- Decision-making is slow
- The best candidate accepts another offer
A Better Way:
- Post the role within 48 hours
- Review and schedule candidates within 72 hours
- Pre-block time for interviews
- Decide within 24 hours of final round
- Stay warm with timely, human updates
If filling the role feels like a grind, you don't have to do it alone. We're here to make it easy.
LEAD
Meetings Aren't the Problem. You (Probably) Are.
No agenda, no follow-up, no decisions. That's not a meeting. It's noise.
The Old Pattern: You meet to "align" + everyone shares updates + no clear action items + no follow through + repeat
A Smarter Rhythm:
- No agenda? No meeting
- Start with last week's action items and score them
- End with: What did we decide? Who owns what? By when?
- Track it and review every time
Good leaders don't run more meetings. They run better ones.
GROW
Your 1-on-1s Are Useless? Don't Panic
If your 1-on-1s are just updates and small talk, you're missing the point.
Typical Equation: "how's everything going?" + vague answers + random updates = 30 minutes gone, no momentum
Try This Instead:
Ground the conversation with a performance scorecard, then keep it focused with a similar vibe:
- Wins (personal/professional)
- Action Since Last Status (what moved, what didn't)
- Roadblocks (what's in the way)
- Feedback (two-way, always)
- Growth Check-In (career and performance goals)
It doesn't have to be fancy. It just has to be intentional.
