158: How to Make 'Em Beg to Work for You with Dr. Angela Lauria
Stop chasing your dream team! And make them beg to work for you instead.
As a solopreneur, I understand the struggles that come with building a team. Whether it’s finding the right person to hire, or feeling dissatisfied with your team, or letting people (or watching people) go… the entire process can feel super frustrating. But today’s guest, Dr. Angela Lauria, has created a way to draw the right team members into your business and she’s here to share her secrets to make em beg to work for you.
Tune in and learn why you should never chase people to hire, how the hiring process is similar dating, the massive difference between hiring staff and building a team, why you need to get clear on your brand values and mission prior to hiring, the importance of trusting your team (even if it means letting them eff up), why money doesn’t solve your problems, and why you need to love your team as much as you love your clients.
