Business leaders look to hire self-starters. They take the initiative and follow through.
· Do you wait for instructions
· Or figure things out for yourself?
· In business, we want to hire the latter
· Because they’re serious and passionate
· About the things they do and how they do them.
If you want self-starters, begin by asking pertinent question when interviewing them. Give them a scenario and ask how they would handle it. Then train them, teaching how and why things are done and what results are expected. And as they get started, be a coach and a cheerleader: give them the opportunity to show what they can do, coach them on how to be better, and let them know when they’ve done a good job. Self-starters are usually proud of that fact and passionate about getting a job done; so, let them know you appreciate their efforts. In many ways, this is what servant leadership is all about – a supervisory approach that fosters individual thinking and action. Help your employees to flourish and succeed today.
