Always be Learning.
ceo collaboration founder learning people tools talentOne of the most important traits of high performing team members in a venture-backed company is the desire to learn.
If someone is not willing to learn, they are not willing to change.
The ability and willingness to change is always necessary in a growth environment.
When hiring, ask questions to gauge if your candidates are active learners.
What are your hobbies and interests? What are your passions? What do you study? Why?
How’d you learn that? How long have you been doing that? What drives this interest? Why?
How do you learn best? Why?
Hire learners. Then make and celebrate change within the culture of your organization.
By building teams that thrive on learning, you will always out pace and navigate your competition.
Keep climbing my friends.
