Lisa Lou — Self Reflection on Your Professional Journey, 3-Part Hiring Philosophy and "Breaking Bad" Revelations

With me, your host Oz Rashid (although I’m not so sure I was the host for this one…!), is Lisa Lou, Vice President at ADT Security, a company that aims to protect what’s really important to people.

Lisa is a phenomenal communicator, exceptional at extracting information and really listening. So much so, that I got lost in the conversation and forgot we were doing a podcast about hiring.

The discussion is frank, insightful and deep, and I’m pretty sure you won’t want to miss a word of it.

It covers stuff like building for legacy vs. ambition and how hiring staff for your business fits into either of those goals, how self-awareness impacts the way you hire, and how interviewing makes you smart.

Lisa has learned incredible life lessons and shares some of them on this show. A couple of examples are: don’t ask people who are already accomplished to prove anything to you in the hiring process and mentor those just starting out in the workplace.

She offers three pointers for career starters: 1) Be intentional 2) Build a board that helps guide you to your goals and 3) Be true to yourself.

She asks thought-provoking questions. We talk about a shared appreciation for the Breaking Bad series and discuss how it brought real-life clarity to what we are striving for.

What deep introspection and passion!
