Of you are reading this,which one excites you below?

I would always advise hiring someone for attitude over hard skills. Think of attitude like a superpower for adaptability! When you hire based on attitude, you're bringing in folks who are eager to learn and grow. They'll pick up hard skills on the fly, adjusting to whatever challenges come their way. But if you prioritize hard skills over attitude, you might end up with someone who's resistant to change, making it tough to keep up with the evolving needs of the job. Picture this: a workplace where everyone's cheering each other on, high-fiving through tasks, and celebrating wins together. That's the magic of hiring for attitude! When you assemble a team of positive-minded individuals, they'll naturally bond and support one another. But if you focus solely on hard skills, you risk bringing in someone who's a pro at their craft but brings a storm cloud of negativity wherever they go, disrupting team harmony and lowering everyone's spirits. What are your thoughts on this?

The skill set is the easy part.. now try to apply those fundamentals below...If you posses any of those qualities you're already great at what you do.. To possess integrity as a skill means you have a strong set of values. In the workplace, this can also make you seem trustworthy and honest ...

📌 Self-Awareness will always be my biggest admiration over skill. At its core, self-awareness involves a deep understanding of one's own thoughts, emotions, strengths, and areas for development. This introspective insight empowers individuals to navigate challenges with clarity and authenticity. By recognizing their own biases, limitations, and triggers, individuals can approach situations with a sense of humility and openness, fostering a culture of trust and mutual respect. This subsequently paves the way for the receptiveness to numerous other items on this list.

Or Soft Skills. So often underestimated but these are the people that you want to work with and that get the job done. These traits also happen to be found in great communicators. #communicationscoach #coachingskills #accentreduction

When we combine these disciplines with skill as the secondary things, that's when we become powerhouses and truly dynamic people.

Skills < Values I truly admire in a person… While skills are capabilities or competencies developed through learning and practice, values are principles or beliefs that guide behavior and decision-making. This phrase implies that having the right values, such as integrity, empathy, and honesty, kindness,compassion, Empathy,gratitude,humility,patience,sympathy,is more crucial than possessing a specific set of skills because values shape how those skills are used and applied. Someone with the right values can always learn new skills, but someone lacking the right values may misuse their skills or cause harm despite their abilities. #bekindalways #gratitudeattitude

It takes more to succeed than just skill

I’m curious to know anyone’s thoughts on this Personally, I think hiring processes are beyond outdated. I rarely ( aside from quick glance ) care what is on someone’s resume. Of course , it’s situational depending on level of the role but even at an exec level , are you really ever hiring 100% based off what the paper says? I would hope not. I’m excited to see how these processes will shift over the next 5-10 years to focus on the intangibles that make up who a person truly is to their core and not on paper.
