Common hiring practices are destined for failure-here's how to hire the right people and build a company culture designed for long-term success
What's more important in a job candidate-skills or attitude? Mark Murphy argues for the latter, and Hiring for Attitude provides the data to back it up.
In a major study by Murphy's company, Leadership IQ, 46 percent of all new hires fail within their first 18 months-and 89 percent fail for attitudinal reasons, not skills. Hiring for Attitude explains how to change your hiring practices to avoid this common pitfall and lead your company to long-term success. It takes you step by step through the process of shedding hiring techniques destined for failure and, instead, focus on the what matters in a candidate: attitude.
