Synopsis

Hire the Best results from our more than 60 years of collective experience helping organizations and leaders assess and select top talent. It’s here that we share the insights, tools, and techniques that we have applied:

• As Insiders—while in leadership roles where we had direct hiring
responsibility in multinational organizations such as General Electric,
Bank of America, and Delta Air Lines. We’ve been on the front line of
hiring—we’ve walked in the shoes of the hiring manager, finding,
assessing, and selecting talent across the globe.

• As Advisors—supporting organizations with hiring decisions, talent and
succession planning, M&A-related talent assessment, and in the
challenging space of post-merger HR integration decision-making in
North America, Asia, and Europe.

• As Instructors and Coaches—facilitating assessment and interviewing
training for groups and individual coaching with executives, managers,
and Human Resources leaders and professionals in Fortune 500 firms
including 3M, Delta Air Lines, Citibank, General Electric, and Lockheed
Martin in Africa, Asia, Europe, Latin America, and the US. And we’ve
worked with a variety of medium and small-cap firms in technology,
retail, CPG, and not-for-profit sectors to help them skillfully hire.
Hire the Best is designed for managers, team leaders, and anyone else
responsible for finding, assessing, and selecting talent. Whether you are
running a small business, growing a start-up, or managing in a well-
established medium-sized or large company, you know the impact that
having the right person in the right job can make.

The need to find and hire top talent transcends teams, organization levels, companies, and industries. Whether the hiring decision will be made by one leader, or by team consensus, each participant in the selection decision should know how to hire the best.

Even in very large organizations with well-defined staffing processes and legions of internal recruiters coordinating the flow of candidates, it’s ultimately a leader’s skills in identifying, interviewing, evaluating, and selecting talent that are pivotal to hiring the best.

Because hiring for a key role is among the most important decisions a leader can make, we wrote this book to enable you to hire the best. The book focuses on key drivers impacting the hiring process and introduces frameworks and tools to bridge common gaps in interviewing and assessing candidates.

In this book, you’ll find a formula to recognize and avoid common pitfalls in the hiring process.

Many of you picking up a book titled Hire the Best may be either preparing to hire or deep in the process of hiring for your organization. Others of you may be interested in how to go about improving the odds of hiring the right person for the right job at the right time but do not have an immediate hiring need. Regardless of your situation, you will learn practices that will increase your odds of hiring the best—from building a powerful talent brand to successfully onboarding a new employee.

Hire the Best includes helpful resources and examples in a robust appendix, including a comprehensive Hire the Best process checklist.
