- define your company culture early, waiting until you feel the need for it usually means you are already in trouble
- avoid silos by making sure every new hire understands the company mission, not just their job role
- when hiring a highly skilled person, be clear in the interview about who the company is so they do not pull culture off track
- build a standardized interview process so every candidate is evaluated through the same steps and skills criteria
- skip the canned job description and think through why the role exists so you can speak to it honestly in the interview
