Change your hiring mindset and start hiring great people!

Are you stuck in the narrative that you can't find good people and that no one wants to work anymore? If so, this one's for you. Let's cut to the chase: that belief is a lie. Sure, if you look for it, you'll find people who don't want to work, but the truth is, good people who want to do great work are out there, and they want to work for you.

At Impact Initiative we’ve worked with hundreds of organizations, and we see it every day: dedicated, capable individuals ready to bring their best to the table. The problem often lies in our own mindsets and strategies. If you think there are no good employees to hire, you'll only find confirmation of that belief. It's time to shift your perspective and build an environment that attracts and nurtures top talent.

Here's how:

1. Mindset Shift: Drop the belief that no one wants to work or that good employees are impossible to find. From the first hiring conversation to every touchpoint within your company, reinforce the idea that great people are out there and want to work with you.

2. Connect Work to Vision: People want to do meaningful work. They need to see how their role contributes to the bigger picture. Be clear on your company's vision and mission, and ensure every team member understands how their work ties into it. This connection fosters a sense of purpose and motivation.

3. Foster Autonomy: Trust your employees. Give them the autonomy to do their best work without micromanaging. This doesn’t mean abandoning structure, but rather providing clear expectations and the freedom to meet them. When people feel trusted and valued, they perform better.

4. Cultivate a Positive Culture: Your company culture should reflect these values at every level. It's not just about what you say in meetings, but also about the everyday interactions and attitudes within your organization. Root out negativity and reinforce the positive narrative consistently.

Call to Action: Challenge Your Beliefs

Reflect on your current hiring and employee management beliefs. Write down one negative belief you hold about finding good employees and replace it with a positive one. Share this new belief with your team and discuss ways to integrate this mindset into your hiring practices and daily operations.

While this is simple to understand, it’s difficult to do! If you need support in shifting your mindset and/or team culture, book a free consult call and let’s discuss how we can help!
