Building Great Teams
summary
Practical hiring and team tactics: keep job ads focused (no more than two or three required bullets), drive referrals until about 70% referrals, and run a streamlined technical process of 2–4 interview rounds with objective behavioral questions and live coding or take-home demos. Build culture with clear values, a one‑page engagement cadence (weekly team meetings, quarterly offsites, monthly recognition), use Slack/Yammer/LinkedIn visibility, and measure outcomes claimed here: 80 direct reports scaled via empowered leaders to 15% growth, 95% retention and 98% satisfaction.
