It's All About the Fit!: A Practical Guide to Hiring an Executive Who Will Increase Your Company's Value (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9780998485065)

Presenting a More Effective Methodology for Hiring a "Value-Builder"

In companies both large and small, having the best executive team makes a critical difference. Studies show that an effective senior management garners a firm as much as a 35% increase in its valuation, and the quality of executive leadership ranks 2nd in valuation criteria among investment analysts.

If you are a CEO, senior executive, or HR professional seeking to hire a new key executive, you need a "Value-Builder" -- the true elite of top performers, beyond the "A players." It's All About the Fit (R) will show you how to find and hire them.

Based on over 15 years of experience as a successful retained recruiter, Lynton Edwards shares his unique CompleteFIT(R) executive search process. Step-by-step, he walks you through a systematic, robust, and holistic method to identify, recruit, and hire real Value-Builders. You will gain insight into every aspect of effective professional recruiting, including how to:

- write a detailed position specification and match candidates to it
- set the specific standards for the hard and soft competencies needed for 
value-building performance
- interview candidates to identify their competencies and performance track record accurately
- use scientifically-based assessment tools in the proper way
- analyze to determine the holistic fit of a candidate to a position
- select the right final candidate for the job and onboard for rapid results

The CompleteFIT(R) process helps ensure a tight alignment between the requirements of a specific executive role and the technical competencies, personal qualities, cultural motivation, and ethical values of the selected candidate. The process allows you to reduce the risks of a wrong hire and instead increase the chance of adding a Value-Builder to your team.
