Episode #64: Hire for Greatness featuring Mitch Gray
“If you hire a great team, you can't stop success. You're gonna have to work really hard to destroy this because people that are that are on fire with a purpose with a passion with an idea. It's impossible to stop them now.”
Mitch Gray
Having a great team made up of quality individuals continues to be a key success factor in business and the formation of a great team starts with the hiring process. Leaders and hiring mangers need to get it right upfront if they're looking to develop a great team because it all starts with bringing in the right people who are in alignment with the direction of the organization.
To do this, leaders have to be able to look past the credentials on the piece of paper and recognize the humanity that exists within the individual they’re considering hiring.
“You're a human, no matter how much money you have in the bank, no matter what your culture is, no matter where you're from, or where you're not from. You're a human. I'm a human. Let's start there.”
The recruiting has evolved greatly with the inclusion of assessment tests and interviews as a way of evaluating a large number of applicants. However, those assessments aren’t necessarily a good barometer when it comes to matching the right person with the right culture.
“How to Hire and Keep Great People: Your Go-to Guide for Finding Great People, Designing Great Culture, and Building Your Dream Team” written by Mitch Gray is a step-by-step guide to assist with attracting today's best employees which in turn relieves pressure from actual hiring process.
Its a book that removes the guess work from the hiring process and gives leaders several no-nonsense tools and processes to identify and attract the highest performing employees.
