Before you approve another hire, clarify the problem it is supposed to solve.
We help SME leaders decide whether to hire, redesign the role or solve the underlying problem another way.
- Things that used to move quickly now take longer.
- Decisions get stuck.
- The same people keep getting pulled into the detail.
- You’ve added people, but the pressure hasn’t really shifted. In some cases, managing the business has become harder, not easier.
For many SME leaders, the issue is not simply headcount. The pressure is being created by something underneath the workload that another hire may simply inherit.
Hiring fills roles. Structure reduces pressure.
You can run a flawless hiring process and still get it wrong, because the role was wrong before the advert was written. Then the business concludes it picked the wrong person.
Five minutes, no preparation needed.
