Hiring the right team members can make or break your private practice. One bad hire? It can lead to headaches, inefficiency, and unnecessary stress. But when you get it right, your practice thrives with a team that shares your vision and supports your long-term growth.
In this episode, Whitney breaks down The Importance of a Strong Hiring Process—a step-by-step approach to finding the perfect fit for your team. From recognizing internal growth opportunities to using the “Camping Test” (yes, really!), she explores how to go beyond resumes and make hiring decisions that align with your practice’s culture.
Plus, Whitney reveals common hiring pitfalls, why skipping steps can cost you, and how tools like the Enneagram test and smart interview strategies can ensure you build a strong, reliable, and growth-oriented team.
