Hiring Greatness

How to Recruit Your Dream and Crush the Competition

De: David E. Perry, Mark J. Haluska

Narrado por: Steven Menasche

The unprecedented tell-all guide through the intricacies of executive recruitment.

The single greatest opportunity that an organization has to improve both performance and culture in one stroke lies in the hiring of a new executive - the right executive. The fresh thinking of a skilled leader has the potential to unleash innovation, empower employees, and generate wealth for the company. Similarly, a bad hire may mortally wound the organization and cause ripple effects throughout the entire economy.

Hiring Greatness contains valuable insider strategies and tactics - previously known only to a handful of America's wealthiest elite headhunters - to attract, recruit, and retain star executives. Authors David E. Perry and Mark J. Haluska have completed more than 1,800 search projects across five continents, maintaining a 99.97 percent success rate and negotiating more than $380 million in salaries. Like magicians unveiling the hidden tricks of the trade, Perry and Haluska reveal:

• How to systematically secure - and retain - the perfect talent for your company
• How to keep recruiters from poaching your star executives (a good hire is relatively meaningless if they leave the company)
• Twenty-three questions you must ask a potential headhunter
• The language that makes your company the most compelling, and how HR lingo can repel the best talent
• Four critical turnoffs that drive great candidates away from top companies

One company created $3.8 million of market value each hour for six months, simply by hiring the right leader. Hiring Greatness takes you behind the scenes of one of the world's most profitable and secretive industries, meticulously showing how any organization can make monumental hiring decisions that lead to massive success.

Excited to read!!

I am so looking forward to reading, learning and implementing from this master of recruiting!

If you are a Leader This is a must read book

David Perry is one of the leaders in the Executive Recruiting space. He walks through his 1000+ successful hires and lays out a blueprint that is duplicatable no matter what level of leadership you are in! This is a must listen to book!

I have been in the recruiting industry for over a decade and this is the best book that I have ever read for anyone in our space. When I first read it I was an Internal Recruitment Leader within a large GovCon organization. I was able to quickly implement some of the ideas in this book into how we interacted with executive leadership and how we hired top-level talent that led us to some amazing leaders being hired.

Now that I have my own firm I have been using this book and his 2nd great book Executive Recruiting For Dummies as blueprints for how we grow.

Whether you are an internal recruiter, agency recruiter, an executive headhunter, or an organizational leader this is a great book to help you build the team that you want to build!

Excellent Read

Great methodology for companies to follow. Each chapter well supported with excellent stories and examples.

I could not get into it

Sound like something out the 1950s approach if I was hiring a CEO for Ford.
