This episode of Scaling Clean Podcast features our conversation with Abby Hopper, the head of the Solar Energy Industries Association, the U.S.’s main solar trade association widely known as “SEIA". She’s SEIA’s third CEO, taking over the reins right when the avowedly anti-renewables Trump Administration took power in 2016.
Here are some highlights from the episode:
- Why it’s important for young professionals about being someone’s boss to be clear about their strengths and their weaknesses;
- Why building teams is the most rewarding parts of her job;
- Why “fit” isn’t the best criteria for hiring from an increasingly diverse pool of potential employees;
- Her advice on firing?
- The 2 questions she asks everyone she interviews for a job;
- Why having failed is an essential criterion for leading an organization.
