Hiring for Success
Often times I see companies hire somebody to do a job, and they are unsure if that particular employee is going to bring a sense of caring, commitment, and passion to the work place. If this question has to be asked, then you have already answered your question. Too often, we compromise our operations based on the fact that we need to be "staffed", and in the process we throw a warm body out there to do the job. A job that, in fact, is not being delivered with excitement, anticipation, care, and with no pursuit of excellence. Knowing that it costs over $7200 to fire, hire, invest time recruiting, and train, is it worth it? Take your time to find the right people, with a positive attitude, who will bring solid core values, and an eagerness to do the job right. A small amount of sacrifice will go a long way, and your next focus should be on proper training, one on one time, goal setting, and constant feedback.
