Hiring for Work Ethic: The Key to Long-Term Success

You can't always teach work ethic.

But you *can* always hire it.

Work ethic is not something you can just download at 28, because it's something that's built and developed over years.

Want to find the next "overnight success"? Work to hire the person who grew up finishing the job and leaving things better than he found them.

Look for the people who have an instinct to take initiative.

Next time you're looking to hire, don't just look at skills and experience. Work to understand the candidate's values, character, and the things that drive them.

The people who succeed at scale usually started small and started early.
