Leadership Tip
A Perfect Fit
My sister is selling her house.
She has interviewed two realtors.
Both teams are capable, knowledgeable
and successful. After interviewing both,
she was going to hire the one that she thought
did more transactions in her neighborhood.
Her head said that would be logical.
However, upon meeting again
with this realtor, my sister realized this
would not be a good fit.
She knows her needs and what is important to her.
Her gut told her that she would not be
as comfortable with this choice.
Often we are in situations,
especially when we are hiring, when choice
is based on fit. We sometimes ignore our gut
and try to rationalize our selection based on
logic or the facts.
Whether you are buying a car, moving your
home or office, hiring an employee or even dating,
fit is the key component. You do not have to
overanalyze it. If your gut is not saying yes,
it is important to listen.
