Making Superior HiresHarvard Business Review estimates that as much as 80% of employee attrition is due to bad hiring decisions. When an employee becomes disengaged, they slow productivity, can create toxicity on teams and eventually leave or get fired. Gallup estimates that it can cost one and a half to more than twice an employee's salary to find a train a replacement. Replacing leadership costs much more than that. Putting an assessment protocol in place that that measures position-specific indicators increases your chances of hiring employees that have good judgment, and are most capable of being a successful member of your organization.
