Hindsight Does Not Pay the Bills

You have hired people who did not meet your expectations.

Maybe more than you want to admit.

You recognized the problem.  You vented about it.  You got busy with other stuff.

Then you hired another person the exact same way.

And got the same result:  The new hire did not meet your expectations.

DEJA VU?  Yep.  We have all been there.

Here is the difference between leaders who build championship teams and leaders who keep recycling the same hiring mistakes:  

One of them decided to stop winging it.

The other one is still waiting for their luck to change.

TRUTH CHECK:  Bad hires are not bad luck.  Almost all of them are the predictable result of a hiring process that has never been intentionally built, improved, or coached.

But change is uncomfortable.  So, most leaders do nothing.

They tell themselves their approach is good enough.  They blame the candidate, the job market, or the economy.  They underestimate the compounding cost of every weak hire - the wasted salary, the lost productivity, the damaged culture, the time spent managing someone who should never have been hired in the first place.

Let’s be candid:  Procrastinating on your hiring system and skills is lazy although comfortable, and VERY expensive.

Every bad hire you ignore is a decision to hire again sooner than you’d like.

INCREASE YOUR ROI:  Hindsight is free.  Not applying what you learn is expensive.

Fixing your hiring system and improving the skills of your hiring team is an investment that pays for itself with one hire - the next one you make.

Our Hire the Best coaches work with leaders who’ve decided they’re done with winging it - and committed to build a hiring system and skilled hiring team that consistently attracts, assesses, and adds top performers to their team.
