The standards of the 21st century would be unrecognizable to previous generations. Amid a transforming society, we adapt to technologies that positively impact outdated processes. A testament to this new era, methods for job searching have progressed — making it more accessible for candidates to apply for suitable positions. With a steady increase in entrepreneurial pursuits, what should business owners consider when hiring employees?
The goal of entrepreneurism is the journey — not the destination. While admirable to desire to find a solution to the problem, your contribution is what truly matters. If your business doesn’t succeed, reminisce on the journey, learn from your mistakes, and keep moving forward. When expanding your team, seek talent that shares your perspective and passion, and consider the contribution they will make to your organization — as it will directly impact your company’s culture.
