EPISODE 2: Stop Hiring Before You’ve Defined the Job


Listen Later

Most founders think hiring is the next logical step when they're overwhelmed. But if you haven’t defined the role — clearly, specifically, and strategically — you're not solving a problem. You're creating a new one.

In this episode of HR Decoded, I’m breaking down why role clarity must come before headcount — and how to scope a role that actually moves your business forward.

You’ll learn:

  1. Why “just take things off my plate” is not a real job description
  2. The difference between hiring for pain vs. hiring for a problem
  3. A 5-question framework to write a job brief that prevents mis-hires
  4. How to test whether you need a hire at all
