Most organisations know a bad hire is expensive.
The challenge is that most organisations only ever calculate part of the cost.
That’s why we’re launching a free Hire Great People webinar – How Much Is a Bad Hire Really Costing Your Business? (And What Great Hiring Could Be Worth) – taking place on Wednesday 22nd July from 12.30pm – 1.30pm on Zoom.
During this live discussion, Headstar Managing Director James Roach will speak with Simon Hartley, Founder of Be World Class, to explore why some organisations consistently hire better than others, why so many hiring mistakes happen before the interview even begins, and why character may be one of the strongest predictors of long-term success.
Designed for business owners, Managing Directors, Finance Directors and senior leaders involved in recruitment, this practical session will explore the true financial impact of hiring decisions and introduce some of the principles used by world-class organisations when identifying high performers.
Recruitment is a business performance decision
Many organisations still see recruitment as an HR process. But Simon Hartley believes it’s one of the most important business performance decisions a leader makes.
Every person who joins an organisation influences its culture, standards, productivity and future performance. Yet many recruitment processes still place greatest emphasis on qualifications, experience and interview performance rather than the characteristics that often determine whether somebody succeeds over the long term.
During this live webinar, we’ll discuss:
- The true cost of a bad hire beyond recruitment fees and salary
- The financial value that great people create through performance, culture and long-term impact
- Why many hiring mistakes happen before the interview process even begins
- What world-class organisations look for when identifying high performers
- Why character often predicts long-term success better than experience alone
- Your questions during a live audience Q&A with Simon
