Hiring: The Foundation of Your Culture

Let’s talk about something that’s been gnawing at my brain lately. Something that’s often overlooked, underestimated, and, well, let’s face it, misunderstood. Company culture. That elusive, nebulous concept that everyone’s talking about but few seem to truly grasp.

These aren’t just employees; they’re culture carriers. <a href="https://medium.com/@araujogabe1/hiring-the-foundation-of-your-culture-b9b4216187d7">Read More</a>
