Control Booth,
I am working with a group of Industrial Organizational psychologist at my theatre. We are trying to do Job analysis on the stagehand position. I was told to get a list of the ideal characteristics together to present to the group. While I have a list of what I feel are the best traits I was wondering what the rest of you thought.
To be specific about what I am looking for it is personality traits that you find in a person. Not skills per say. For example “willingness to try new things” is a trait. “Knows how to use a jig saw” is a skill.
These need not be in any order but if you could put a mark next to traits you think are vital I would appreciate it.
Think back to the guys and gals you have known in this industry and what set them apart from the folks that only lasted one show or season. You can also list what traits they must NOT have if that is easier to name.
I am doing this so that we can develop a better way of seeking out stagehands and lower the turnover rate of people in my theatre. Any thoughts you have would be very much appreciate it.
Thanks,
GBTimex
