Are we approaching hiring backward? In this thought-provoking episode of the School of Hiring podcast, I sit down with the brilliant Dr. Diane Hamilton to explore a radical new lens on hiring.

Her expertise sheds light on one of the most persistent hiring truths: companies hire for skills but fire for behaviors.

As the creator of the Curiosity Code Index® and Perception Power Index, she's developed groundbreaking tools that help leaders drive innovation, engagement, and productivity. Dr. Hamilton has been recognized globally for her work, including being named one of today's top leadership voices.Actionable Takeaways:Assess for Outcomes: Shift your interview strategy to focus on what success looks like in the role—not just on skills or past behaviors.Leverage Curiosity: Use curiosity as a metric for identifying candidates who can adapt, innovate, and grow with your company.Mind Your Perceptions: Challenge your biases by using structured interviews and validated tools to evaluate talent objectively.

Dr. Diane Hamilton is one of those people that came on my radar and just didn't stay off of it. She is one of the leading experts when it comes to studying curiosity in the world. She's written multiple books about curiosity, she's the creator of the curiosity code index which tries to help us understand what actually gets in the way of our ability to stay curious, and for that I am extremely grateful. I took the curiosity code index, and actually the focus of a lot of our conversation today is us unpacking my scores and her explaining the different factors that cause us to perhaps retreat from curiosity. She's a thought leader in other fields, including leadership, sales, marketing, management, engagement, personality, and, as I mentioned, curiosity. She has spent time with some of the best leaders in the world. So, today's conversation certainly focuses on what she's learned, what she's studied, what she's researched, and how we can apply it to our lives. She's a keynote speaker that's also been featured in a multitude of publications that you've heard of, such as Ink and Harvard Business Review. If you are someone who's interested in curiosity, perhaps you've seen her speak at a company or at a conference or on other podcasts. Diane had a number of amazing insights during our conversation. Some of them include: “I spent years researching and studying what happens to curiosity [over the lifespan].” “Both curiosity and creativity tend to peak at age 5 and then diminish.” “This fixed mindset is something that will shut you down completely.” “It's challenging to meet everyone in the way they want to be met.” “You can't teach all kids the same way.” “You rely on the foundational aspects of what you know, but you need to continue to grow.” “A lot of people are afraid of the ramifications of stepping outside of what's comfortable.” “We don't want to be the one not doing what everybody else is doing.” “There's no better way to learn something than to teach it.” “For a culture to be curious, it has to come from the top down.” “[Personality assessments] bring up all of these ideas to think about.” “Each year, you meet people that open up new ideas for you.” “You just don't know who you're going to meet that might change your whole trajectory.” “You don't know what you don't know until you try something.” “Nobody wants to look like they didn't prepare.” “If you're the smartest person in the room, it's a pretty boring room.” “With technology, information overload is a real thing for people.” “It's easier to get along with the group.” Additionally, you can follow Diane across social media @drdianehamilton and purchase her books, Cracking the Curiosity Code and Curiosity Unleashed, anywhere books are sold. You can also find everything you need to know about Diane on her website. Thank you so much to Diane for coming on the podcast! I wrote a book called “Shift Your Mind” that was released in October of 2020, and you can order it on Amazon and Barnes and Noble.

Tracing her roots from sales, Diane has had sold just about all sorts of things - from computers to mortgages to real estate - you name it, she has sold almost everything. Banking on that background and combining it with her passion for continuing education, she had experience and expertise that gave her a lot of things to talk about in almost all areas she worked in. After teaching, she decided to go to speaking and consulting and the like. Then she started a radio show,  through which she gained her own following and influence and eventually interviewed highly successful people. Those interviews made her wonder what was similar among those people. That gave birth to her book, Cracking the Curiosity Code.Highlights: Curiosity defined; its linkage to performance and productivity established Learning from the bourgeoise: fostering a curious culture by emulating and rewarding it (it should begin from the top-down) What inhibits individuals from working on their curiosity: Fear, Assumptions, Technology, and, Environment (FATE) Understanding perception and curiosity as a way to build empathy and the interplay of EQ-IQ-CQ How to grow curiosity: Take the assessment, proceed with the assumptions, and then make an action plan Relationship between Curiosity and Creativity  Comparing Perception from one's own vantage point and perception of others in relation to realityFounder and CEO of Tonerra, a nationally syndicated radio host, keynote speaker, and a former MBA Program Chair at the Forbes School for Business, and author of multiple books studied in universities around the world, Dr. Diane Hamilton has been widely recognized as at par with highly esteemed thinkers, leaders and influencers alongside Elon Musk and Jeff Bezos, among others. Her concepts of curiosity and perception based on research may just be another lesson you need to perform better, become the best version of yourself, and make this world a better place.

"Curiosity is like building a muscle." Daring to Dabble shares the same concept.  Using Dabbling (or making small incremental changes to your life) is the easy entry point to learning, growth, engagement, creativity, brain health and life satisfaction. The book, Cracking the Curiosity Code by Dr. Diane Hamilton talks about this concept and its application in the work place.  Dr. Hamilton is an expert in emotional intelligence and behavioral science and works with companies to "unleash human potential."The beauty of curiosity is that it allows you to being wrong and fail so that you don't give up and instead become interested about how to make changes to improve.  If you don't take the time to look at what factors are stopping you, then you won't know how to move forward.  She believes that there are four inhibitors to curiosity – Fear, Assumptions, Technology and Environment.  Curiosity Index is located in the back of the book.Fear of what you may find out, hesitating to learn more because you don't want to look foolish. Assumptions, we assume that we know already and once we believe that we need to be seen as an expert we stop investigating new and different information in a particular topic.Technology provides us with limitless access to information and yet it can cause us to rely too heavily on it, stifling our creativity and possibly our personal experiences and interactions. Environment: how did upbringing and societal beliefs restrict us from wanting to be curious and on top of that we are so overwhelmed by life that we don't believe we have the headspace to keep learning.Elise also shares the value about being curious about the process of learning or changing as well. The process of creating something new or learning something new holds valuable information and learning components. So by being patient in the learning and doing we are truly gaining the most from what we do. About Dr. Diane HamiltonBehavioral Expert, Author, Speaker and ConsultantA sought-after expert in emotional intelligence and behavioral science with nearly four decades of real-world experience, Dr. Hamilton is the creator of the Curiosity Code Index® and the author of five books sold worldwide.

Author Diane Hamilton, Ph.D., sits down with host Taryn Winter Brill to discuss her latest book, Cracking the Curiosity Code: The Key to Unlocking Human Potential.  With this book, Hamilton accomplished something that, she says, hasn't been done before: conducting research about the things that hold people back from being curious. She argues that there's plenty of research out there about curiosity as a whole, but not about what prevents people from being curious. The book uses extensive research to create a “curiosity code index,” an assessment to find out what is holding the individual back. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Did you know the peak of our curiosity is at the age of 5? After that, there is a quick decline in how curious we continue to be. This is part of my conversation today with https://www.linkedin.com/in/drdianehamilton/ (Dr. Diane Hamilton), author of Cracking the Curiosity Code and Behavioral Expert. Diane walks us through the four inhibitors and shares examples of how they show up in our lives.  Curiosity is needed now more than ever in our world. I hope you enjoy this show and I hope it encourages you to ask more questions.  Key Points of this Episode: There are four inhibitors to curiosity - Fear, Assumptions, Technology and Environment. If you don’t take the time to look at what factors are stopping you, then you won’t know how to move forward.  Curiosity requires us to have compassion and to be courageous. Time and experience help with this. Curiosity is the spark that lets leaders create whatever they want to make. For instance, if you were going to bake a cake, you not only need the ingredients but you also need the oven. Think of curiosity as the oven. The biggest step is to realize what behaviors you are exhibiting and seeing if they are rational or not.  Ask yourself, what stories are you telling yourself? Are they working for you? To build your emotional agility and curiosity, you need to ask questions because that will develop your empathy. Asking questions is the foundation of curiosity.

Is it good to be curious these days?  If so, how can we use questions to improve our lives? Watch the video version of Michael Angelo Caruso's interview with author and speaker, Dr. Diane Hamilton at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YjmX61icfls.   Diane is a business behavioral specialist and has a PhD in business leadership. She's an expert in emotional intelligence (EQ), intelligence quotient (IQ) and curiosity quotient (CQ). She's the author of "Cracking the Curiosity Code," a book on how to be curious and she created the Curiosity Index to help people cultivate curiosity as a characteristic. The "Thinkers50" has recognized Dr. Hamilton as an expert on the topic of curiosity. Diane has written a book titled "Cracking the Curiosity Code" and has created an assessment called the Curiosity Code Index, which helps evaluate your curiosity quotient and develop it further. She's also made the coveted "Thinkers 50" an internationally recognized list of important thought leaders. Dr. Hamilton says there are four things businesses can do to create a culture of curiosity: minimize Fear in the workplace, push back against Assumptions, balancing Technology and Environment (FATE):1) Minimize FEAR in the Workplace 2) Push Back Against ASSUMPTIONS 3) Balancing TECHNOLOGY 4) ENVIRONMENT Being curious is a personal asset for people because asking questions helps us become more empathetic, solve problems, deliver customer service and think on our feet. Dr. Hamilton cites the work of the following experts: - Dr. George Land's work on creativity with NASA - Dr. Tony Alessandra's work with personality assessment - Amy Edmondson's TED talk on how curiosity can be used - Dr. Ken Robinson's TED talk Being curious is a practical way to avoid going with assumptions, which can damage relationships and cost companies market share.

Dr. Diane Hamilton is an award-winning speaker and nationally syndicated radio show host based in Arizona, USA. She writes and speaks on business, leadership, emotional intelligence and curiosity, career, and education, and she is the author of several popular books including her latest title, Cracking the Curiosity Code.On this episode of Eudaemonia, Kim connects with Diane to explore the concept of curiosity, and to learn why it’s easier to achieve our goals when we actively seek out our discomfort zone.

Dr. Diane Hamilton, nationally syndicated radio host, speaker, author, educator, and founder/CEO of Tonerra joins me this week to talk about the important subject of curiosity. Diane and I discuss whether we are born curious or if it’s something we can learn and develop, what the cost is when we aren’t curious, and ways we can get more curious! Diane also shares some great insight from her book, Cracking the Curiosity Code, explaining why some people are more curious than others, and what we can do about it.   What You Will Hear in This Episode:   ● Curiosity is something we may not take the time each day to sit down and directly think about, but it is a great part of success and many of today’s top learners and earners are highly curious. ● Diane’s radio show, Take the Lead, features interviews with top authors, speakers, thought leaders and more. She noticed that CEO’s and billionaires all seemed to be highly curious, and continue to feed their mind with high-level thoughts and ideas long after they become successful. ● The Curiosity Code Index and Cracking the Curiosity Code book explores not only what makes us curious, but also what holds us back from being even more curious and open to new ideas and concepts. Diane also explores practical steps we can begin to welcome more curiosity in our personal and professional life. ● With innovation and technology rapidly advancing in our culture, now is the perfect time to raise our curiosity, and understand how deep of an impact it has on our success. ● Diane names a few of the factors that influence our level of curiosity: FATE (fear, assumptions, technology, and environment). ● The first step is to recognize where you hold back from being more curious, and pinpoint where the problems impact you. Then, you can start small with achievable goals to become more curious. Even if it’s just a conversation a day, that is a big stride towards an overall shift. ● Companies and leaders can become curious about their staff and use the data to increase retention and happiness in the workplace. They can also use it to solve big problems that seemed previously unsolvable. ● Start by writing down things you fear and coming up with a SWOT analysis of how to overcome them. ● When you ask yourself, “what have I learned that’s new today?” it will most likely create an openness to become more curious.   Quotes: ● “To me, curiosity ties into status quo thinking, which I’m trying to get organizations away from.” ● “A lot of it is talking to people and explaining that you are developing your sense of curiosity.” ● “As you start questions and listen, you start to see things from other people’s perspective.” ● “The best way to learn something is to teach someone else.”     Mentioned: Dr. Diane Hamilton @drdianehamilton Take the Lead The Curiosity Code Cracking the Curiosity Code

Do you feel like your marketing team has become stagnant in their ideas? Is there something inhibiting the team from creativity and innovation? Perhaps it is because their curiosity is being stifled. An expert in emotional intelligence and behavior science, Creator of the Curiosity Code Index, Author, Speaker, and CEO of Tonerra, Dr. Diane Hamilton, explains the factors that keep people from being curious and how curiosity is the very spark that encourages creativity and motivation. This is a great episode to listen to and consider the curiosity level of your marketing team and what you can do to help foster and encourage that to keep growing. Check it out!   Takeaways: Curiosity is what comes before intrinsic motivation and drive. If people are less curious, your team can be kept from growing in their expertise. There are four factors that can inhibit your curiosity. They are fear, assumption, technology, and environment. The fear factor is people being afraid of not wanting to look stupid or stand out from the norm. In a marketing meeting, are people afraid to ask questions because they do not want to look unprepared?  The assumption factor is your inner voice, things that you tell yourself. For example, “Oh, I don't want to do that because I'm not good enough at it.” The technology factor is when certain things are made too easy for you to find out, so you may not question the reason behind that fact, or you do not know how to leverage certain technology to help you find out more about a particular subject. The environment factor is the external inputs such as your parents, teachers, siblings, friends, and location that you are in that could encourage or discourage curiosity. The Curiosity Code Index tells you the level of each inhibiting factor that you are dealing with, and then helps you to create a plan of where to start dealing with those curiosity stifling factors. Keep your mind open to different ways of doing things. People regret what they don't do as opposed to what they do, do. What can you do with your marketing team to help foster curiosity? How can you work on these factors to help drive creativity and innovation? Career Advice from Dr. Diane Hamilton - It's not so scary to try certain things. Don't wait to try something new, change is exciting. Find people to be your mentors and surround yourself with people that are smarter than you.   Links: LinkedIn:https://www.linkedin.com/in/drdianehamilton/ Twitter: https://twitter.com/DrDianeHamilton Dr. Diane Hamilton website: https://drdianehamilton.com/ Curiosity Code: https://drdianehamilton.com/curiosity-code-system/ Take the Lead Radio Show: https://drdianehamilton.com/radio-show/ Books on Amazon: https://www.amazon.com/Diane-Hamilton/e/B003ZMYMIG%3Fref=dbs_a_mng_rwt_scns_share   Busted Myths: Curiosity killed the cat - Curiosity did not kill the cat.

Everyone is born curious. So, what happens? Why do some people become less curious than others? For individuals, leaders, and companies to be successful, they must determine the things that hold curiosity hostage. Think of the most innovative companies and you will notice they employ people who do not accept the status quo, they aren't reluctant to change, they evolve with the times, they look for problems to solve, and focus on asking questions. Drawing on decades research and incorporating interviews from some of the top leaders of our time, Hamilton examines the factors that impact curiosity including fear, assumptions, technology, and environment (FATE). Through her ground-breaking research, she has created the Curiosity Code Index (CCI) assessment to determine how these factors have impacted curiosity and to provide an action plan to transform individuals and organizations to help improve areas impacted by curiosity, including innovation, engagement, creativity, and productivity. “I have no special talents.

This week’s Misfit Entrepreneur is Dr. Diane Hamilton. Diane is the creator of the Curiosity Code Index (CCI) assessment and the author of Cracking the Curiosity Code. She is a nationally syndicated radio host, speaker, moderator, consultant, and educator. Her radio show Dr. Diane Hamilton Radio showcases successful individuals including C-Suite Executives, Time Magazine’s Most Influential People of the World, Forbes 30 Under 30 Inductees, Nobel Peace Prize Nominees, New York Times and Wall Street Journal Best-Selling Authors, and other successful individuals who share their stories and insights. Through her work as the MBA Program Chair at the Forbes School of Business and at several other universities, she has taught more than 1000 business courses. She has a Ph.D. in Business Management and is a certified Myers-Briggs MBTI and Emotional Intelligence EQ-i instructor. If that is not enough, she is highly sought after speaker, speaking to groups to improve employee relationships, increase engagement, improve productivity, and reduce conflict. One of the most important, and least understood skill sets for entrepreneurs, leaders, and well, anyone is emotional intelligence and we could not have a better person on the show to talk to about it on the show. www.CuriosityCode.com www.DrDianeHamilton.com Diane started in sales doing a number of roles from pharmaceuticals to real estate. After a few decades, she wanted to get into teaching. She thought thousands of courses and this led to her being the MBA program chair at the Forbes School of Business. Through this, she got to work with and learn from some of the top business minds in the world like Steve Forbes. This got her interested in interviewing and started her down the path she is on now. What is emotional intelligence and why is it so important to develop in our lives? It is understanding your own emotions and those in others and then reacting appropriately in your behavior. It’s extremely important because your behavior and soft skills are some of the important things that impact your success and career. Is this something that comes naturally to people or something that has to be developed? It is something you must work on Influences in your life impact your emotional intelligence Your environment has a large impact as well If you were around people with high EI throughout your life, chances are that your EI will be higher than someone who did not have that environment. No matter what, it is something you can continue to improve. One of the best resources on Emotional Intelligence is work by Daniel Goleman At the 11:30 mark, Diane talks about Curiosity and how it relates to your EQ? Curiosity is a big part of improving EQ and succeeding. In fact, there are 4 factors that influence curiosity which relate directly EI: Fear Assumptions Technology Environment Steps to improve EI/EQ? The most important step is to become aware Get a foundational baseline measurement of where you are by taking one of the many assessments online. Get input from others that will be honest with you and be open to it. Be present in the moment when communicating Be careful to develop your empathy which will improve your EQ/EI What is the difference between emotional intelligence and critical thinking? EI is about understanding your emotions and how they impact how you are feeling. Critical thinking is about looking at a bunch of different content/data and process it to make a good decision. A lot of people don’t know how to make decisions by putting everything together and getting to the best decision. You have to learn to separate emotion from logic very well to master both of these concepts How do people avoid analysis/paralysis and become more decisive in this area? Beware of planning too much because of data overload. A lot of leads try to take on too much by themselves where they need to get help, outsource, or delegate. Learn what you are truly good at and focus there – find the resources to handle the rest. Look for the simple, unconventional method. Try using a simple checklist. At the 27 min mark, Diane answers the question, “Why is curiosity so important and what were some of the big things you learned about it while researching and writing the Curiosity Code?” There are so many things that come back to curiosity – it all seems to revolve around it. Inspiration, motivation, drive, growth, etc. all happen because of curiosity. The big “aha” was that there is no research on how to improve your level of curiosity. There is no system or training for it. We must move from “Are you curious or not?” to “How utilize it to grow and succeed at higher levels?” For some reason, we lose our thirst for curiosity as we grow and we need to learn how to get it back. Define curiosity… It can be confused with drive or motivation but is so much more. It is the spark. The strong desire to know more. What is important is to look at the factors that impact it – that is how you can grow your curiosity. Curiosity is figuring out how to overcome challenges instead of shying from them. At the 38 min mark, Diane takes us through each of the 4 factors and what we should know about them…It’s best to just listen to this segment Fear Assumptions Technology Environment How do people take these 4 factors and use them to gain more results in their lives? Once you recognize that under each factor, there are specific areas to work on Diane has created a quiz that will help you understand each area and show you where you need to go. www.CuriosityCode.com (Assessment) Once you know where you are in the areas, you can go to work on them and start to make changes. In the end, as with anything, it takes ACTION! What are 1-2 things you see consistent across the high performers that you interview and spend time with? They are curious They are tenacious They read a lot They take calculated risks and have a good ability to handle risk They know they don’t know everything, but they focus on what they do need to know and bring together the rest   Best Quote: “Companies hire for your hard skills and fire for your soft skills, so you must work on your soft skills – your Emotional Intelligence and Critical Thinking."   Diane's Misfit 3: Companies hire for your hard skills and fire for your soft skills, so you must work on your soft skills – your Emotional Intelligence and Critical Thinking. Learn something new. You must develop curiosity use it to your advantage. If you don’t have goals to drive toward, you are missing out on what you are capable of accomplishing.
