The Key To All Business Success is People
There is only one difference between highly successful businesses and all others. It is the quality of people they hire. The core of all businesses is its people. To be a highly successful business, you must identify, hire, develop and promote the best people.
Financial control, marketing, information services, product development and customer service are only as effective as the people who are placed in these positions. When you hire the best people for these positions the quality of results will increase dramatically.

Poor Hiring Is Extremely Expensive
Poor interviewing and hiring is the most expensive activity any business can engage in. It is estimated that the cost ranges from between 25 to 50 percent of total labor costs. Conversely, your business can save millions of dollars through the selection of high level performers.
Financial costs related to poor hiring include: Low productivity, Loss of business, Wages and Benefits Paid, Management hours in attempting to identify and resolve the problems, Severance Pay and Benefits, etc. Replacement costs include: Recruiting and Advertising, Management Interviewing time, New Employee learning curve, etc. There are also many indirect costs such as employee morale and office conflict for which the financial cost to the company cannot be calculated.

Mediocre Hiring Is Even Worse
Hiring a mediocre employee is even more costly than hiring a poor performer. When one hires a poor performer they know it quickly and take action. However, when one hires a mediocre employee they usually spend considerable time and resources trying to make significant improvements. This is rarely successful. Also, consider the high cost of lost business and productivity from a mediocre employee.
