Blueprint for Building Great Teams

Why I Scrapped the Probationary Period (with Ken Mackness)


Listen Later

What if scrapping probationary periods was the most powerful trust signal you could send a new hire?

Ken Mackness (CEO, membership, charity, private and local authority sectors) makes the case for hiring on values, trusting from day one, and building boards that challenge rather than echo. Plus, why most recruitment failures are the company’s fault, not the candidate’s.

You’ll learn:

  • Why values and transferable traits beat technical experience
  • How to use trust as the operating principle of a team
  • Why scrapping probationary periods can lift performance from day one
  • What separates a culture fit board from a culture add one
