Philosophy
1. Everyone is born perfect already, we just don't know for which job.
So the only thing we could possibly do to hire best possible talents is to craft jobs according to business needs and employees’ innate traits, and complement these with learnt skills.
2. 90% people apply for wrong jobs, because they don't know who they actually are.
Most of us mix innate traits with skills – thus believing that we are capable of working long term at jobs that require skills we learnt, yet for what we have no supportive innate traits, believe what we’ve been told. Everyone of us is a unique set of innate traits, environmental affects, psyche patterns. We all operate differently under pressure and being anxious.
3. Lots of job ads refer to many contradicting human profiles at the same time.
Applying for those jobs would mean lose-lose relationship for both parties. If employee is fit for part of the job due to having 1 human profile at the time then for the rest of the cases the employee has to bend herself/himselt to meet expectations. In long run this “bending” ends with energy drain, burnout, depression, hating the job or the boss or company, and possible quitting of even fireing. No employer needs this kind of surprises, yet we all know numerous cases from our daily lives.
4. Unpassionate mediocrity is born when innate traits and skills are mixed.
Educational institutions and parents wish for the best, to fit you into a box, filling all the ticks needed – to become successful. Yet at some age at your late 30ies you realise you are not happy, content, or you are maybe angry or depressed, as you are in this rat-wheel that you chose yourself (some gave in and followed others advice), and there seems to be no way out. You’d hate yourself, so would your employers as some newcomers exceed your results and they seem to love what they do, unlike you. Even though you are good at what you do. Not perhaps the best, but good.
Would you hire this person yourself?
5. Burnout is employers responsibility, Is it really?
Employers expect that people applying for the job understand clearly what the job means. They put in lots of effort to make sure candidates understand exactly what they are expected to do. Yet candidates are often interested in getting a job/salary only. These downsides start to show off in 4 or 6 months time. The longer they suffer the harder it will be. Mental issues, headaches, physical illnesses, depression, lost motivation, burnout, etc. All that is a clear sign of job fitness mismatch that can be prevented at hiring and at later stage by Sparkly.
6. Some employees suffer longer and think that job has to be hard - this is what they are paid for.
Humans are flexible creatures. They miraculously put up with number of sufferings if only the goal would have high enough purpose in their head. That is for short term. That is with a cost they might not realise at first. But certainly not for long term. Suffering at work means you are doing something against your true nature. Your body and mind tells you this, and yet you donät listen, as money is more important. Till you have severe results and you are forced to step aside. Suffering is a sign – something is wrong, do something about it.
7. Modern Science is catching up and has tools that put time-space theories under the question, as there is a lot more.
Top psychologist and scientist Donald Hoffman’s interview by Steve Bartlet reveals some approaches we’ve been growing up with. Steve asks Donald number of fundamental questions Donald has no answers for, or these answers are pointers or beliefs, because we are the same, yet different, like wearing head-sets in a video game, like avatars, like in Matrix movie. Listen yourself to catch up with us.
Sparkly aims to solve far more pragmatic and practical challenges we experience daily, so we kindly ask you to not get carried away.
