6. Not-a-Fit Criteria
- Individual Contributor Focus: Operates as the team's best individual contributor instead of building team capability or empowering L3s.
- Information Hoarding: Keeps architectural patterns or tribal knowledge trapped in their head rather than creating reusable playbooks and documentation.
- Avoidance of Conflict: Avoids difficult performance conversations with underperforming team members, allowing capability gaps to persist.
- Activity Over Outcomes: Measures success by "tasks completed" rather than pipeline stability, data accuracy, or business impact.
- Functional Siloing: Fails to build partnerships with Marketing or Product teams, leading to misaligned data delivery.
