Summary of Brian Tracy's Hiring & Firing

Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Sample Book Insights: #1 The selection process is the key to your success as an executive and the success of your company. When you have to hire, the best rule is to hire slowly and carefully. #2 When you are in the position of hiring someone, it is common to make the mistake of hiring as a solution to a problem. You are overloaded with work, and you have a hole that needs to be filled. You then go into the marketplace and grab someone and throw them at the problem. #3 Selecting the right person is extremely important. It is expensive to hire someone who doesn’t work out, as it takes you time to go through the selection process, prepare, interview, and hire them. Firing is also expensive in terms of morale, as it raises the turnover rate of staff in the company.
