Hi Friend
Great teams are made up of people who passionately care about the team. Nothing new, right? But I also believe that those who passionately care about the team also passionately care about each other as well.
The antithesis of teamwork is a group of individuals who don’t get along, people who are only in it for their own gain, and those that simply don’t care much about the success of the team or for their teammates.
So who must you hire on your team? Hire people who care. Hire people who will put their own aspirations, egos and differences aside for what is best for the good of the team. Hire team members who will stand by each other when the darkest clouds of adversity gather.
This doesn’t mean you simply hire the nicest of nice who say they care in the interview – it’s more than that. Nice is great, but more importantly you need people who care enough and are courageous enough to always do the right thing for the team.
How do you find these people? You ask the right questions.
Here are four things you should look for in every potential team member and ask in every interview..
