"Are you considering transitioning the leadership of the company?" “Is there a clearly articulated long-term strategy?"

Because of Lior’s background as a recruiter, Lior wanted not only the best out of his people, but to create sustainable processes around the work that they did so that they could be kept accountable and grow.

[27:05] What does Lior do when there are concerns over a new hire? [32:40] It’s important to set the tone with the new candidate that you are excited that they’re joining the company.
