Vancouver Chapter Meeting March 2026
Join us at our upcoming Vancouver Chapter meeting!
Fraser Engel from Mindworks will be delivering a presentation on bad hiring decisions and why employers still make them.
Even with better systems, more experience, and the best of intentions, organizations still end up making hiring decisions that lead to underperformance, misalignment, and costly turnover.
As your business grows, the impact of each hiring mistake can include:
- Productivity gaps that slow progress
- Leadership strain as managers compensate for mis-hires
- Operational drag that limits momentum
Growth doesn’t always fix problems, it can magnify them.

A Better Way Forward
Reducing hiring risk requires shifting from intuition-driven hiring to data-informed talent decisions. High-performing organizations proactively build talent pipelines and clearly define the behavioural, performance, and personality traits required for success—both today and as the business scales.
This session introduces a practical, data-driven approach to:
- Clarifying what each role truly requires for success
- Understanding the relationship between personality, performance, and potential
- Identifying alignment and risk before hiring, promoting, or developing talent
- Creating stronger leadership accountability for building team capacity
- Developing meaningful career path planning and succession strategies
Key Takeaways
Participants will gain insight into how to:
- Reduce hiring and promotion risk
- Improve role alignment and performance outcomes
- Strengthen succession planning and leadership development
- Build organizational capacity ahead of growth demands
- Use behavioural data to support smarter people decisions
Session Outcome
Attendees will leave with a clearer framework for identifying hiring risk, improving talent alignment, and building a stronger foundation for long-term organizational growth.
