Change Isn’t Comfortable. It’s Catalytic.
I just moved—new house, new neighborhood, new routines. Renting out the old place while getting settled in the new one has been a masterclass in disruption: decisions under time pressure, boxes everywhere, and a hundred small choices that add up to momentum (or gridlock).
It’s the same in recruiting and leadership:
Taking a new role feels like that first night in a new home—unfamiliar, exciting, and a test of your systems.
Adding headcount is like deciding what actually deserves space—what moves the mission forward vs. what clutters your floor plan.
Replacing an underperformer mirrors letting go of furniture that doesn’t fit—tough in the moment, essential for function.
What worked for me (and works for teams):
Decide the destination. Define one measurable outcome (e.g., “Vacancy < 7% in 90 days” or “Premium labor –20%”).
Purge before you pack. Kill stalled reqs, legacy processes, and extra approval loops.
Label every box. Build a visible pipeline board: who’s at screen → interview → offer → start; update daily.
Sequence Day 0 → Day 30. Pre-book interview blocks, empower same-day offers for A-candidates, align onboarding to first-30-day wins.
Own each room. Assign one accountable “Vacancy Owner” per critical role—no more “shared” ownership.
Inspect after move-in. Weekly check-ins on acceptance rate, time-to-fill, and 30/60/90 outcomes; adjust fast.
If you’re navigating a new job, a rebuild, or a strategic upgrade to your team, we help leaders turn messy transitions into measurable wins—fast.
