The Truth about Hiring the Best

By Cathy Fyock

The Truth About Series offers in each book the collected and distilled knowledge on a topic and shows you how you can use this knowledge in your daily life. With an 'aha' on every page, information is presented in a clear and accessible style that the reader can easily reference. Written in short chapters, each book aims to cover an entire field of knowledge, cut to the gist of each subject in an entertaining way, and when necessary, pull the curtain back and pop the bubble of commonly held assumptions. Each Truth is a tool to make you more successful. Getting the best people for your organization is not only difficult, but the strategies for getting the best are often not obvious. To get the best you need to first identify who the best are, then how to reach the best, then determine the best among the best you want to hire, but this is not always easy to do. In The Truth About Hiring the Best you will learn: it's not just a job to fill; it's your organization's future that you're creating; getting the best isn't just about asking the right questions, it's about listening for the right answers; and great people don't want to work for desperate employers. It's a war for talent and you need to win.
