I’ve managed teams of 20+ in my own businesses and 200+ in corporate settings, and over the years, I’ve learned a lot about how to (and how NOT to) hire and manage team members. Since I’ve had years of experience hiring various positions I have made this series to talk about ALL the dos and don’ts of hiring and on this episode we are going to discuss something I am very passionate about: why hiring a VA is not ALWAYS the answer.

Quick overview of what we cover:

• How to tell whether you should hire a VA or not, and how to determine which team member might actually be a better fit
• How your hiring structure may not be meant for hiring a VA, but more of a full-time employee
• Why you shouldn’t need to (and in most cases, actually can't) train a VA
• Most VAs are technicians and doers, not strategic thinkers
• Understanding the difference between hiring to replicate vs hiring to innovate
• What you need to be thinking about before hiring
