49: When The Expert Gets It Wrong
In this episode of Bad Boss Confessional, Beth Fahey sits down with CJ Dube', expert EOS implementer, author, and someone who has spent more than 40 years in the people business. CJ's confession is one that will hit close to home for anyone who has ever hired against their better judgment.
The conversation digs into what it actually means to hire slow and fire fast, why the tools only work when you use them, and what it costs a team when a leader keeps someone in the wrong seat for the sake of convenience.
Her lesson is one she now coaches every client on: the red flags in a reference check are there for a reason.
