Product information
- Free ebook – The Best Little Book on Hiring™ This is NOT your standard book on hiring. It has 60 pages of strategic, easy-to-implement ideas to meet today’s hiring needs. The ebook is the foundation for the training and the Hire to Compete™ forms.
- Training – Hire Like a Head Coach™ Winning Head Coaches are always dealing with high turnover issues yet are responsible for fielding a winning team. What can we learn from them about? Everything! Note: This is a fundamental and strategic change in how hiring managers look at talent and potential new employees. Two options
1. Executives – Everyone will be dealing with these changes. How can we make hiring our competitive advantage? (retiring Baby Boomers, Millennials at 50% of the workforce in 5 years, talent wars, retention, etc.)
2. HR, Organizational Development & Training – similar to the above but more hands on. How to positively change the hiring culture?
- Strategic Hire to Compete™ Hiring Forms Currently, job descriptions and interview evaluation forms are woefully inadequate. They provide only the most basic info (educations, experience, duties, etc.) Manager need to provide in writing more strategic information BEFORE the hiring process starts. The new forms must be signed. These forms will focus your attention on position depth chart, current an future needs, what you can aaccomplish in the next 12 months if you hire an “A” player, etc.
- Pre-hire employee assessments What is the candidate bringing to the open position? Can we use those talents now? Later? Quality assessment tools can measure a candidate’s problem solving ability, work ethic, sales aptitude, behavioral traits, motivational intensity, etc.
