About this episode
“The reality is in order to make the business a good functioning big business, we just can't keep the same habits.” Today, Leila (@LeilaHormozi) explores the top five mistakes businesses make when hiring employees, including hiring from the same pool of people and ignoring red flags during the interview process. She also emphasizes the importance of diversity of thinking and hiring for practical experience rather than just potential. Welcome to Build where we talk about the lessons I have learned in scaling big businesses, gaining millions in sales, and helping our portfolio companies do the same. Buckle up, because we’re creating an unshakeable business.
