Most new-hire problems are process problems, not people problems. Host Lia Garvin pinpoints the two hiring-process gaps leaders commonly skip — both happen before a new hire can hit their stride — and offers practical fixes managers can use in the first weeks to improve onboarding, role clarity, and accountability. For founders, people managers, and business owners who want faster ramp-up and better retention.
In this episode you will learn:
