One common concern leaders have with remote teams is how to make sure people are actually working for the time we are paying them to work.

You’ll discover:

• Why hiring slowly and prioritizing character is the foundation of trust.

• How to train, retrain, and reinforce your company’s core values.

Do you hire remote team member?

Hiring remotely isn’t just about finding someone who can do the job; it’s about finding the right person for the right outcome in the right way. In this episode, I break down the four essential questions you need to answer before making a hire. These questions will help you avoid vague expectations, poor fit, and that dreaded “That’s not my job” response.

You’ll learn how to:

• Define the outcome, not just the tasks of the role.

• Set clear metrics and expectations for success.

• Identify the type of person who will thrive in the role.

• Think like a leader instead of a manager when building your team.

How do you confidently hire someone for a project you can’t do yourself? That’s exactly what I walk through in this episode. After recently hiring a certified expert for a highly technical accessibility report (a skill no one on my team has), I realized just how powerful my hiring system really is.

In this episode, I cover:

• The one mindset shift that will change how you approach hiring

• The exact steps I took to find, vet, and price out two expert freelancers

• Why I confidently pitched an $8K offer knowing I’d pay $2K to deliver it

• How to use Upwork the right way to test and vet candidates

• Why I treat every project—no matter how small—like a real job posting

• My best advice for setting up repeatable hiring success

You’ll also hear my big announcement: I’m officially rebranding this podcast from The Digital Nomad Entrepreneur to The Eric Dingler Leadership Podcast. I explain why I’m making the shift and what kind of content to expect going forward.

Listen now if you’re building a remote team, want to avoid bad hires, or need help turning your time into margin.
