Too many visionary leaders hire in the dark, hoping intuition will land the right candidate. The truth? Most hiring mistakes aren’t about the people you bring in they’re about the clarity, process, and buy-in you didn’t have before the interview.
In this episode of The Right Fit Leader Podcast, Alec Broadfoot and Josh Smith break down three of the most common hiring pitfalls:
Vague role definitions — starting the search without clarity on traits, values, and responsibilities.
No true hiring process — relying on gut feel and inconsistent methods instead of a proven blueprint.
Lack of team alignment — making a hire without stakeholder input or buy-in, setting the new leader up for failure.
At VisionSpark, we believe hiring isn’t guesswork — it’s strategy. Listen in to learn how to build clarity, consistency, and confidence into your hiring process so you can avoid costly mis-hires and bring in leaders who fit, align, and thrive.
