*Never* Hire Your Friends

About this episode

If you want to love the people you work with and lead them effectively, build a community of friendship in the workplace. In this bonus episode of the Maxwell Leadership Podcast, Mark Cole is joined by special guest Marcylle Combs to discuss her brand-new book, Never Hire Your Friends! 

Key takeaways: 

  • Too many people say that humility is a weakness and not a strength.

  • Speak honesty with kindness, especially when it's going to hurt. 

  • Having fun with your team isn't just a nice idea  it's serious business. 

Our BONUS resource for this episode is the *Never* Hire Your Friends Worksheet, which includes fill-in-the-blank notes from this teaching. You can download the worksheet by visiting MaxwellPodcast.com/HireYourFriends and clicking "Download the Bonus Resource."
