At the very beginning my director told me to make sure not to "throw up" on the potential recruit. That visual helped me SO much in trying to stop and listen instead of say too much.... which is hard for me... but I am really trying to listen, ask questions directed at them and what their dreams and goals are... you'll do SUPER!!!!!!!
Thank you Diane. That is a great visual (throw up!, oh my gosh). There are some consultants in our cluster that really don't want to recruit and that is ok, but I do and want it so bad I can taste it. I see the big picture and want to be a part of it. I know in the past I overwhelmed with information sheets but maybe I need to just sit back, listen and find out what they are looking for.
