I dive into one of the most debated questions for any entrepreneur or business owner: Should you prioritise values and character traits over exceptional skills and experience when growing your team? Drawing on my own journey and even a football analogy from my days as a Manchester United fan, I share why I believe hiring people who align with your core values, traits, and culture will always trump individual brilliance. I discuss how the right team spirit can overcome adversity and drive your business forward, even when skill gaps exist. In an ideal world, we’d all want the perfect mix of both, but when you’ve got to choose, here’s why I’ll always pick the right person over just the right skill set. Tune in for my thoughts, practical advice, and a little motivation for your own business journey!
