The hiring process is also like the one I’ve been using: first, do it yourself to understand the standards and nuances, then recruit people who can both lead a team and get things done. So, how do you find such people? The founder of Gamma said they have a three-month trial (a very long period, which shocked the host), treating candidates as part of their team, letting them own a project from 0 to 1, and observing how they demonstrate leadership and hands-on ability. Looking back, many candidates for key roles I hired failed at this within a month. This is also why I later stopped hiring small-time leaders from big companies who only manage people or C-level executives from small companies with no results. People who can only be managers but not players, or who can only be players without any mentoring ability, quickly stopped being part of the team.
