Agreed. I think filling a position is more about finding an individual who brings things to your company that you can’t teach like critical thinking, work ethic, and drive and then training them on what you can teach. If you have a potential job candidate that may not have all the experience or qualifications you are looking for but they are willing to give you 100% and want to be mentored and molded, those are the employees that turn into long term leaders and company assets. I’ll be starting a new job here in a few days that I’m very excited about. It’s a similar job to my last position but a completely new competitive industry. I feel privileged to have been given a new opportunity when on paper I may not have been the most active candidate. I feel that my new employer saw my potential in the interview and was willing to mentor me in a new industry and shape me into a more versatile employee. I understand that this concept does not work 100% across the board, but I do feel like a lot of good candidates get in passed over when a few weeks of training could get them ready to be a strategic force in your company. Find someone who you want to represent your company and your brand, then train them to be the kind of worker that will be successful in your field.

Trust and communication go hand-in-hand. If you don’t communicate, whether it’s good, bad, or indifferent, people will not trust you. And once trust is broken, it’s difficult to rebuild. Additionally, in the absence of communication, people make up their own stories; and as humans, we naturally go right to the negative or worst-case scenarios. Do yourself a favor and take the time to talk with people instead of hiding behind excuses or shying away from the difficult conversations—you may be surprised by what can come of it.

Truth ultimately triumphs Antonio Nieto-Rodriguez. While truth should always prevail, it shouldn't trigger unnecessary panic or discomfort. Effective communication demands navigating difficult conversations with empathy and clarity.  Responsible communication is paramount. >> Presenting solutions alongside problems fosters constructive action rather than crippling anxiety. >> Presenting challenges alongside actionable solutions fosters understanding and empowers others to join the quest for solutions.

We made it through Blue Monday, lets keep the motivation up. some quick tips below

Louder for all the editors-of-major-news-publications in the back! But seriously, offering remote or hybrid work arrangements is a FREE perk that instantly boosts satisfaction and talent retention. The overwhelming majority of candidates I speak with want remote options. They finally had a taste of balance and autonomy and they aren't willing to give it up. #returntooffice #remotework #hybridwork #talentretention #jobsatisfaction

As we all talk about this almost everyday that work environment in the workplace needs to be improved but very few are actually acting on it. Now that ratio really needs to be improved so that every single employee doesn’t feel forced and would love to come to work with pure satisfaction. And in reality, people should encourage remote work more so that the work-life balance can get better. #workplaceculture #jobsatisfaction #worklifebalance #remotework
