19. How to Hire a Bunch of People

In today’s episode we talk about hiring a group of people, 5 or more.

Perhaps you’re adding a new department to your company, or adding a new employee or two to an existing department. Perhaps you’re adding entry level team members, director level people, etc.

First and foremost, congrats on growing and expanding your business!

Here’s a sneak peek of the episode:

- Asking yourself “how do this new position I’m hiring for, relate to the positions I ALREADY have in my business?”

- How will adding these new positions/people affect your current team?

- In your business, are you wanting to build more of a hierarchy? Or are you more interested in building a flat organization type structure?

- How are you paying the people that are currently working for you? And then how do these new jobs fit into your current compensation structure.

- We also chat a bit about benefits: dental, vision, medical, 401K, student loan debt payment, PTO, holidays, etc.

- What are your HR systems?

     -Who’s doing the interviews? You, are you hiring out, panel interviews, etc.

     - How are you going to make the final decision?

     - What does that job offer look like and how are you going to do it?

     - How do you introduce the new members to the current team? Etc.

- Conducting regular checkins with your team.

- Are there new laws your organization has to follow, now that you’ve added more people to your team?

This show has been created for you, and we want to hear from you. Tell me how you are challenged, how you are inspired, and the kinds of conversations you like hearing the most.

If something you heard today brought a smile to your face or a spark to your heart, and you’d like to connect with me, here are a few ways you can do that.

One is my newsletter, it’s where I put most of my time and energy when I’m not working with clients or on this podcast. Sorry social media! It’s a mix of real life stories, tips and tricks and of course updates on what’s happening with the podcast. Whenever something is going on with me or in my business, it always comes out there first.

Another resource that I have for you is my Guide to Doing Work Differently. The guide takes you through four inquiries into how you can build a more sustainable and equitable work environment for yourself and your team. It's a great place to start.

Last, if you’ve got a burning question, a comment, or a situation you’d like my eyes on, you can email me at [e-mail].
