Slow to Hire, Quick to Fire: How to Build Major League Teams

Most companies hire too fast, fire too slow, and wonder why they stay stuck in the minors. Josh Matthews and business coach Chris Hallberg unpack how “slow to hire, quick to fire” really works — from using assessments and culture filters to holding leaders accountable and scaling simplicity.

- Scale simplicity instead of complexity
Brutally honest and packed with takeaways, this one’s for leaders and recruiters ready to play in the majors.
