Nothing is static. Certainly not work.
You seek candidates primed for growth. Growth within their roles, growth as individuals, growth in enriching the team’s capabilities.
Growth blends the qualities of curiosity and excitement with competence. Competence provides them with base. Curiosity nudges them to question, to experiment, and to learn. Excitement fuels their dedication to their role, the mission, and the teaam.
Growth is potential.
General Managers and coaches all over the sports world talk about growth and potential. Those are the diamonds in the rough — the hidden gems. The raw materials that just need to be shaped like clay in their hands. The ones who might not be all that now but will be all that in the future.
You care about growth, not just because of the hidden gems, but because growth is the engine that drives making great things. Stagnation is death. To ensure your team’s growth, you need individuals who can match that momentum step for step.
Growth, in essence, is the journey from ‘what is’ to ‘what could be’. And it’s this journey that transforms individuals, galvanizes teams, and propels organizations forward.
