Interview for Values
According to the opinions of more than 300 female entrepreneurs, almost a quarter (23%) cited that culture and values misalignment was the main reason they have left their corporate jobs. Less than 1% of those surveyed by Corporate Crossovers said the glass ceiling, including factors such as the pay disparity, was their reason for leaving. This reinforces what has been known for some time. People leave firstly their boss, then their job and then their organisation. So you might have a job you love but if your boss has values that you don’t respect, the situation becomes intolerable. Why not include some questions on values in your interviewing and selection?
