And if I can just be really direct, sometimes it even applies to yourself.
Right person, wrong seat.
And there are two common mistakes that we're gonna start with, then we're gonna dive in really, really deep.
The two common mistakes is we confuse loyalty with fit, and we assume effort will fix misalignment.
Let's talk about that for a moment.
We confuse loyalty with fit because
they're loyal people and we like them, we tend to think that they've got to fit in the role.
Or we assume if we all just try harder, I coach them better, they give a little more effort, that effort will fix misalignment.
Unfortunately, these things generally aren't
And because we care about someone that might be the right person in the wrong seat, we tend to give them more time, more coaching, hoping that the coaching will help them get better.
But we have to remember, better coaching won't solve a bad fit.
So if you think you might have this going on with a volunteer or with your assistant or such, what I want you to do is just assess the situation.
And we're gonna start with the big qualities, and you're gonna ask,
Is this a person of character?
Are they capable?
Do they have a good attitude?
Do they care?
Are they engaged?
Do they have a solid work ethic?
And hopefully, yes, on all those, or they probably shouldn't be on your team.
