このコンテンツについて
Let’s call it out: ego kills great hires—quietly, subtly, and often without leaders even realizing it.
In this episode, Kim Frost pulls back the curtain on how ego shows up in the hiring process, from irrelevant “gotcha” interview questions to dismissing high-potential candidates just because they didn’t flatter you. If you’ve ever thought, “I’ll know the right candidate when I see them,”—this one’s for you.
Kim shares stories from the field, including one manager whose curveball beach math question nearly tanked their team—and another hire that almost didn’t happen because the candidate wasn’t “excited” enough (read: didn’t stroke someone’s ego).
In this episode:
- How ego subtly shows up in hiring decisions
- The difference between thoughtful standards vs. personal validation
- Why calm, quiet candidates can be your team’s greatest asset
- What hiring managers really mean when they say, “They didn’t wow me”
- Why strong leaders don’t hire for comfort—they hire for capability
Key reminder: If your interviews are built to make you feel good, you’re not hiring—you’re auditioning for fans. And top talent? They’ll see right through it.
