By Sename Agbossou As entrepreneurs, we often obsess over finding the most skilled people.But here’s the truth: skills can be trained—attitude cannot. I've seen it over and over again:An employee with the perfect CV but a toxic attitude can damage morale faster than any technical gap ever could.Meanwhile, someone with moderate experience but a strong, positive, and coachable attitude becomes a pillar of your team. ✳️ What do we mean by “great attitude”? It’s the mindset that says:“I’ll find a way.”“I want to learn.”“How can I help?”“I take responsibility.” Great attitude is energy that uplifts, not drains.It builds a culture of ownership, creativity, and momentum.It doesn't mean being nice all the time—it means being constructive, even in disagreement. 💡 A True Entrepreneur knows: You can’t build a powerful business on weak attitudes.You’re not just hiring a person—you’re inviting their spirit into your company. That spirit can either move the vision forward—or quietly sabotage it. So what do true entrepreneurs do?They look beyond the CV.They listen for how someone talks about past challenges.They observe whether someone blames—or learns.They don’t just ask, “What can you do?”They ask, “Who are you when things go wrong?” 👁 Entrepreneur’s Challenge: Look at your team—or the people you surround yourself with. Who brings energy, initiative, and positivity?Who makes excuses, spreads negativity, or hides from accountability? You don’t need “perfect people.”But you do need the right attitude mix—or your culture will work against you. 🎁 Want to build a team that matches your vision?📘 Download my free ebook “The Secrets of a True Entrepreneur”
