Stop Making Emotional Hiring Decisions

Send us Fan Mail Every hire you make is either an investment in your business or a liability. Many of the hires that become liabilities don’t happen because the candidate was bad. They happen because the decision was driven by emotion and not strategy. In this episode, Dr. Una talks openly about her early days in private practice, when she was so grateful anyone answered her job ad that she hired people she knew weren’t the right fit. She shares the emotional hiring patterns she sees again and again in physician-owned businesses. These patterns feel kind in the moment but can cost you your time, your profit, and your best team members. In this episode, you’ll discover: Why one wrong hire can shrink your impact, revenue, and time off Five emotional hiring scenarios, including the one people pleasers fall into most often The right way to hire family members, and the mistake that keeps so many practices from growing How one emotional hire tells your entire team that competence is optional, and why your best people leave because of it How a solo surgeon’s team kept revenue coming in while she was out of the country for two weeks Three questions to ask before you make your next hire, so emotion doesn’t make the decision for you If you’re hiring right now, or you’re still living with the effects of your last hire, this episode will help you see things clearly. Your challenge: Look at your most recent hire and ask yourself honestly whether it was an emotional decision or a strategic one. Then email Dr. Una and tell her which scenario you’ve been caught in and what you’re committing to do differently. Know a physician entrepreneur who’s about to hire? Share this episode with them.
