Is there someone in your life where you wonder, “No matter what I say to this person—no matter how many times I repeat myself—they just don’t seem to understand me?”

Lots of times, poor hiring decisions aren’t the result of poor performance—they’re the result of mismatches in personality. Many people you hire may have the skills to perform their job well. Assessing the hard skills someone brings to your organization is often as simple as looking at their interview responses, work experience, and recommendations or referrals from others.

Is the way your organization approaches its decisions working? Who's involved in your side conversations, conferences, or meetings when a new idea comes to the table or a deadline is fast approaching?

It's challenging to find the best ways to set up your workplace for long-term success. When  you consider implementing coaching into your business, you have to think about how you’re going to pay for the services—and whether hiring a coach is a good investment for your company.
