To be able to take charge and lead everything.
So you need to figure out, so whatever assessment tool you're using, you need to have a tool in there that helps you determine what are those behaviors that define success in that role.
Then when you have the candidate or your existing employees take the personality assessment, what you're doing is you're matching it to that target.
The closer you can match it, the more psychologically connected to the work that they will have.
So, for example, that attention to detail with the PM, right?
I don't know about you, Tommy, but I am not a naturally a detailed thinker.
It's something I had to learn how to do.
You know, like most entrepreneurs, I'm more big picture, close is good enough.
You know, if it doesn't work, we'll find a plan B.
However, I learned the hard way, making a lot of mistakes that sometimes you don't have a plan B, like if you're going to the bank for a credit line.
Right.
Banks don't go by close is good enough.
Right.
They want every penny accounted for.
So so you learn how to do the details.
But there's a huge difference between learning how to do it and actually enjoying doing it.
And a psychological connection of the behaviors means that you enjoy it.
And that's what personality assessments are actually doing.
They are identifying the intrinsic motivational needs of the individual.
So if you want a great PM who's going to consistently produce and continually get better, you got to make sure that they know how to do the details, the knowledge and skill side.
