Who: The A Method for Hiring

The silver lining is that “who” problems are easily preventable. Based on more than 1,300 hours of interviews with more than 20 billionaires and 300 CEOs, Who presents Smart and Street’s A Method for Hiring. Refined through the largest research study of its kind ever undertaken, the A Method stresses fundamental elements that anybody can implement–and it has a 90 percent success rate.

Whether you’re a member of a board of directors searching for a new CEO, the owner of a small business in search of the right people to make your company grow, or a parent in need of a new babysitter, it’s all about Who. Inside you’ll learn how to

• steer clear of common “voodoo hiring” methods
• define the outcomes you seek
• generate a glide of A Players to your team–by implementing the number 1 tactic used by successful businesspeople
• ask the right interview questions to dramatically beef up your ability to quickly distinguish an A Player from a B or C candidate
• attract the person you wish to have to hire, by emphasizing the points the candidate cares about most

In business, you are who you hire. In Who, Geoff Smart and Randy Street offer simple, easy-to-follow steps so that you can put the right people in place for optimal success.
