1. The story Peter shared about VeggieTales highlights the importance of recruiting staff who are passionate about the mission. What might be the impact of having leaders who are disconnected from the organisation’s mission?
Leaders disconnected from the mission will let the organisation drift from the mission. And all staff will follow. The original mission will not be fulfilled.
2. When making staffing decisions, how do you currently assess a candidate’s passion for the mission of your organisation?
There is limited focus on that – at present will still put too much focus on skills and expertise
3. Are there any improvements or adjustments you can make to ensure a better alignment between prospective candidates and the organisation’s mission? Who do you need to discuss this with?
Yes, adapt our recruitment focus
