Discover how knowing oneself can transform team dynamics and drive long-term achievement.
Show Notes:
- There are a lot of talented people out there who are compelled to do what they’re doing.
- When someone’s auditioning for a role, you get a gut feeling if they’re nailing it or not.
- Someone having the right appearance for a role doesn’t mean they can pull it off.
- Some talented people can take direction, and some can’t.
- In addition to skill, you can test someone’s instincts in the audition process.
- Sometimes, you find out that someone you called in to audition for one role would actually be good in a different role.
- For a person to be the right fit, they have to be both good in their role and good in teamwork with everybody they’ll be working with.
- While you’re casting, you have to be focused, and aware of the context of the role.
- The more casting you do, the sharper your casting skills become.
- Finding the right person for a role might require a lot more looking than you’d hoped for.
- The higher your standards, the longer it might take to cast someone in a role.
- Greatness is only achieved over a long period of time.
- If you know who you are, you don’t have to spend time thinking about it.
- It's hard to care for others when your full-time job is caring about yourself.
- If someone doesn’t know who they are, you can’t predict how they’ll respond to challenges.
