Red & Green Flags: What to Know Before You Vouch for Someone


Listen Later

What separates purpose-driven leaders from those chasing quick wins? Joshua and Alisha dive into spotting red flags and green flags when evaluating individuals, especially in startups and investments. Here’s what they reveal:

  • Purpose Over Metrics: Leaders with a higher purpose focus on the big picture, not just ticking boxes. They connect their work to a personal mission, not only a company’s success.
  • Human Connection: Investors should prioritize the person, not the pitch. Authentic storytelling and a shared vision reveal a leader’s true potential, not fabricated narratives.
  • Common Ground: Successful collaborations hinge on shared interests and values. Without a common ground, relationships stagnate, and growth stalls.
  • Consistency is Key: Leaders with integrity carry their authentic selves everywhere. Their actions, not their words, prove their commitment to a higher purpose.
