𝐒𝐩𝐚𝐫𝐞 𝐚 𝐭𝐡𝐨𝐮𝐠𝐡𝐭 𝐟𝐨𝐫 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐓𝐮𝐧𝐢𝐬𝐢𝐚 𝐧𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧𝐚𝐥 𝐭𝐞𝐚𝐦 𝐦𝐚𝐧𝐚𝐠𝐞𝐫… ✅ Hired ✅ Qualified for the World Cup ✅ Took charge of one game ✅ Out the door before the team bus had cooled down Talk about a “fast-paced environment.” Apparently he looks a bit like Louie Spence… which makes me wonder if the pre-match team talk was less tactical briefing and more jazz hands in the dressing room. “Press higher, darling! Feel the shape! Own the midfield!” All jokes aside, it’s a brutal reminder of something we see in recruitment all the time: 👉 Expectations set sky-high 👉 Little runway to deliver 👉 Decisions made far too quickly In business (and football), hiring the right person is only half the battle — you’ve got to give them the platform, clarity, and time to actually succeed. Otherwise, you’re just running the world’s shortest fixed-term contract. If your hiring model feels a bit like this, let’s have a conversation before your next “one game wonder” joins the squad ⚽ #Recruitment #Hiring #Leadership #Probation #Football #BusinessSupport
