When we search for fit, we often get sidetracked by the present.
Does the peg fit into the square hole?
That might work for manufacturing components, but not when it comes to people.
“Can this person do this job?” isn’t a worthy question to ask when looking for fit.
A better question: “What experiences has this person had in getting to this point?”
The experiences shape the dreams a person has and the culture they’ve developed.
If you get a person with the right dreams and cultural background that fit the dreams and culture of your business, then you have the real fit you’ve been looking for.
Stay Positive & Find The Fit
