The Biggest Mistakes Companies Make in Executive Hiring 

Executive hiring is high stakes, yet many organisations still rush recruitment decisions or focus on all the wrong things. As Headstar Manager Nichola Davies has seen across multiple businesses, the cost of getting it wrong is far higher than taking the time to get it right. 

Where hiring goes off course 

Speed, pedigree and misaligned expectations often derail otherwise strong processes. Good candidates can walk away, while the wrong ones make it through. 

What better hiring looks like 

In this video, Nichola shares the patterns she sees most often and how businesses can avoid the missteps that lead to poor executive appointments.
