Common hiring practices are destined for failure―here’s how to hire the right people and build a company culture designed for long-term successWhat’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.
