About this listen

It's happened to the best of us. You have a job opening to fill. You interview a range of qualified candidates and hire the best of the bunch - or so you think. You soon realize that the person who seemed like a perfect fit during the interview doesn't have what it takes to do the job.

In Who, Geoff Smart and Randy Street, of the management consulting firm ghSmart, combine their experiences training thousands of managers and executives with the most revealing and comprehensive research ever on the subject of how to hire successfully, as well as advice and stories from more than 20 billionaires and 60 CEOs. The result is a simple, four-step method for hiring with confidence, designed for everyone from the CEO on down. Who shows you how to avoid the most common pitfalls of hiring, how to identify "A Players" - people who can perform their job better than 90 percent of the candidates in their field - and how to make sure the best candidate will be excited to join your organization.

Hiring is every bit as important an element of successful business as other key principles, such as leadership and strategy. Who should be required listening for anyone in a management position.

Easy to Understand TopGrading Method

I appreciated the powerful stories that proved the TopGrading method is king. The narrator is to the point and captivating.

Making hiring wisdom go viral

Highly recommend for new CEO's. I accidentally stumbled upon this book and only wish I had learned this hiring wisdom years ago when I started seeing more success in my bootstrapped startup. The information is clear and I bought the ebook to follow along and get serious about building a blueprint for my next hire. They also have complimentary resources on their website with templates that you can use if you're serious about your next A-Level hires.
