In any business, let alone a family or founder-owned business, the role of a CEO is both multifaceted and demanding. As the driving force behind strategic decisions and organisational growth, CEOs shoulder immense responsibility. However, what happens when the owner's involvement becomes a hindrance rather than a support system? In this article, David Twiddle of TWYD & Co considers the detrimental impact of owner interference on non-family CEOs and the repercussions it can have on organisational success. https://lnkd.in/e6qfmsZr

It's not just about finding the right person for the job; it's about finding the right person for the family... As hiring managers, we often focus on job skills and qualifications, but what truly sets a team or a company apart is the sense of belonging. We firmly believe that building a successful team goes beyond matching skills to job descriptions; it's about cultivating a sense of belonging within the workplace. When we talk about the "right person for the family," we're emphasising qualities like empathy, collaboration, and a shared sense of purpose. These are the individuals who not only excel in their roles but also uplift those around them, creating a positive and productive environment. At TWYD & Co we prioritise not just skills and experience but also values and cultural fit. We understand that a cohesive team is built on mutual respect, support, and a shared vision. That’s why we search for candidates that bring unique strengths that contribute to the collective success of our clients, helping them create a workplace that feels like a second home. We encourage all professionals and #familybusinesses to look beyond CVs and interviews. Seek individuals who align with your values, embrace diversity, and share your purpose. Together, we can create not just successful businesses but also fulfilling and supportive work families. We call it #TalentWithYourDNA . #familybusiness #HR #Recruitment #Hiring #Culture
