Hire for Grit Over Talent: Why Resilience Beats Skill in Building Strong Teams

Achieving the adoption of new standards, behaviors, and principles by just 20 to 25% of a culture can create a tipping point—a domino effect—where the momentum gradually pulls the rest along. While many people aim to change an entire culture all at once, this is virtually impossible. Instead, focusing on getting a core group to embrace the change is often enough to influence those who remain, pushing them to either adapt or move on.

Join Arizona-based real estate professionals Justin Benson, George Laughton, and Lindsay Fricks in our new series The Inspection Period. Each week, they sit down with industry leaders to explore the personal stories and behind-the-scenes insights that drive their remarkable success.
