Tech Talk: Hiring and Firing to Build a Dream Team

📢 We are thrilled to announce our next event, where we talk about hiring and firing. Join us for an evening of informative discussion and engaging conversation with fellow tech leaders and executives.🚀

Our expert panelists will share their experiences and insights on various aspects of the hiring process, including when to add new people (and when not to), defining roles, recruitment, interviews, taking references, scoring, negotiating terms, onboarding, and forming/storming/norming. We'll also discuss the dark side of the coin — firing contributors, and the many parameters and considerations that go into that process.

Expect a lot of discussion around best practices and the impact of these processes on the team and organization at large. This will be an interactive session; your participation and questions are highly encouraged! 💡💬
