The real challenge isn't just finding candidates, it's identifying those who truly stand out.

Forget the standard interview script; it's time to get real.

Let's value passion, drive, and effective intelligence over traditional pedigrees.

Here's how to shake up your talent search:
Push the boundaries – ask questions that reveal true character.
Look beyond the resume – seek evidence of passion and drive.

Reference checks?

Go deeper, ask for the story behind the accolades.

Let's start a conversation.

Share your experiences or questions about reinventing the talent search.

Together, we can change the game.

In the tapestry of human connection, the threads that hold the most vibrant colors are those woven with intention and thoughtful questioning.

It's the curiosity that asks, "Could there be a better way?" that brings us closer, transforming our interactions from mere exchanges to profound connections.

Consider the power of a question not as a challenge to authority but as an invitation to explore, to understand deeply, and to innovate collectively.

It's like planting a garden together, where every question is a seed that, when nurtured, can bloom into solutions and innovations previously unimagined.

Have you ever experienced a moment when asking the right question at the right time changed everything?

Perhaps it opened a door to a new opportunity, mended a strained relationship, or led to a breakthrough in your work.

Let's create a space where every question is welcomed, and every answer is a step towards greater understanding and collaboration.

Ever noticed how the quality of your relationships depends on the kinds of questions you ask?

Taking a page out of a commanding officer's book, who spends the first 30 days building relationships through insightful questioning, we can all learn to foster deeper connections.

Here’s how you can start:

Be genuinely curious: Show that you’re interested in understanding others, not just gathering information.

Go beyond the surface: Ask questions that invite sharing of experiences, hopes, and concerns.

Listen for patterns: Use these insights to find common ground and strengthen your bond.

This approach isn’t just for the military; it’s a powerful tool for anyone looking to build meaningful relationships.

Have you tried this in your personal or professional life?

What was the outcome?

Ever faced the daunting words, 'We've always done it this way'? It's a familiar refrain in both the military and the private sector.

Yet, the most groundbreaking leaders and teams dare to ask, 'Why?' and 'What if?'

It's not about discarding tradition for the sake of change but evolving to remain relevant and impactful.

Have you or your team successfully challenged an outdated tradition to achieve better results?

Or maybe you're facing resistance in trying to implement change?

Share your story or thoughts in the comments below.

Let's inspire each other to embrace change and innovate for a brighter future.

Navigating the business world's talent search often feels like deciphering a complex puzzle, where true potential is masked by traditional benchmarks.

Yet, amidst the multitude of accolades and references, lies a question worth pondering: Are we truly uncovering the essence of drive and passion, or are we merely skimming the surface?

Epsiode 108 with Mike Sarraille invites us to reconsider the value we place on pedigree versus the raw, potent force of drive and effective intelligence.

It's a call to action to delve deeper, to seek those whose potential is not merely inscribed on paper but embedded in their very spirit.

Like the unwavering resolve of the Marines, true drive is cultivated through resilience, passion, and an insatiable quest for growth.

As we navigate this journey, let's share our experiences and reflections.

How have you identified and nurtured genuine drive in yourself or others?

What lessons have you learned from looking beyond the conventional markers of success?

Join the conversation below. Let's redefine excellence together.
