How a hire works
Finn makes the case. The two of you decide.
- Finn brings the math.What the specialist costs for the year, against what it should return over the next five to ten.
- You both say yes.A hire takes two yeses, like everything else in the house. A no ends it.
- The specialist starts that night.It reports to its manager, and its work shows up in your next briefing.
The guardrail
Twenty-three seats. Not one can move your money alone.
No specialist earns on what it recommends. No specialist goes around its manager. Nothing moves without both of you.
