Building Teams
Filed under: Leadership
A few thoughts as it pertains to building teams and/or hiring the right people:
- If I can hire a strength, I can manage a weakness.
- Although tempting, I do not want to surround myself with people that affirm my thinking.
A few questions for a potential hire:
- If a book publisher offered you a book deal today, what would the book be about?
- What was your worst failure?
- What has been your greatest success?
These questions are a great glimpse into a person's passions, struggles, and victories, and are great ways to assess competencies.

Answers to the three questions:
1. Jesus' last prayer in John 17, specifically
vs. 20-23.
2. Getting fired from my 1st sales job.
3. Starting an outreach ministry to people in
the "heavy metal" culture and seeing 300+ get
born again in 1.5 years.
