Welcome to Manager Tools.

This is Sarah.

And I'm Mark.

Today's podcast, teaching your directs how to interview chapter one, part one of two.

As always, our content has been crafted by humans, and we are now certified by proudly human.

The questions this cast answers are, should my directs interview someone who would become

their peer? How can I teach my directs how to interview? What do I need to teach my directs before they

get a chance to interview? If you want answers to these questions and more, keep listening.

If you're new to managing managers, the game has changed. The effective senior manager

conference is built specifically for you. The tools, the frameworks, the peer conversations

you can't get anywhere else. This isn't a generic leadership event.

It's Manager Tools Live, and we're coming to Chicago on June 4th, and seats are limited.

So head to Manager-Tools.com forward slash ESMC to register today.

Mark, we talk all the time about how the manager tools interview process recommends having each direct report interview for the job of their peer, essentially. Right. Not necessarily

each, but most, depending upon how many directs you have. Yeah, good correction. Good correction.

So today,

we're going to talk about something that I think is very important, that is helping those hiring

managers out there ensure that the directs of theirs who are interviewing their peers are qualified

to do it. Yes. And let's be clear, if you're a senior manager and you've got managers reporting to you,

you might make the assumption that those managers are good interviewers, but I don't think that's

necessarily so. I would suspect that most people in our community who are senior managers,

and again, have managers reporting to them.
