Don't Write Off the Dads

Intel Brief

When someone has a family depending on him, the drive to provide can create a different kind of hunger at work.

Operator Note

Hire men with kids.

There’s a different kind of hunger when the fridge depends on it.

Lots of managers talk about “hiring someone who's hungry,”but hunger hits different when it’s not your stomach growling - but your son’s.

Unmarried guys might be driven to chase success (nothing wrong with that).

But married ones? They're after providing for others who can't fend for themselves.

So don’t write off the dads.

They're less distracted, and more driven than you think.

They don’t just WANT to win...

They need to.
