people and values w/ ben pyle, cto of curantis
guest: ben pyle, cto of curantis
- hire on attitude and aptitude, not just technical skill, since both can be taught but good character is harder to find
- reaching out directly to someone with hiring authority can pay off, even casually, if you show genuine skill and care
- executive coaching can create real change if you find a coach you connect with and you do the introspective work
- learn what makes your people's eyes light up, then put them in roles and projects that match those interests
- invest in yourself consistently through content and networking, since showing growth in public makes hiring easier
