In this episode of the Simplify Leadership podcast, Sheree Comninellis, CEO of Lead with Sheree, shares the approach you should take after having a bad hiring experience.

Sheree is a strategist, entrepreneur and expert in Learning and Development. With over 17 years of experience in leadership roles, she has a proven track record of developing and mentoring leaders at all levels. She has worked across a range of industries, from small businesses to large corporations, helping them build their leadership capacity.

In 2023, she founded Lead with Sheree to offer practical, easy-to-implement leadership resources and guidance to new leaders. Her mission is to simplify leadership, making it accessible and actionable, so that new leaders can overcome overwhelm and step into their roles with confidence.

In this episode, I discuss the fact that it is very likely that you will make a bad hiring decision. I explain all of the emotions you may be feeling and how you should reframe this situation so as not to impact your courage to hire again.

I take you through the process you must apply once the team member is no longer with the business. This process will enable you to identify what went wrong and improve your process by closing the gaps. I also explain why you must not give up and why you should try again asap.

This episode is a must listen for any leaders who are new to the hiring process, or those who may be feeling hesitant to hire again after a bad hiring experience.
