Autor Roxi Bahar Hewertsonen Limba Engleză Hardback – 10 oct 2020
In today's complex and competitive world of work, organizations simply cannot afford a mismatched new hire, a loss of top talent, or a dreaded bad 'goodbye' following a difficult termination. Whether working to avoid budget mayhem or preserving your company's image, learning how to navigate the hiring and firing process is a corporate essential.
Leadership expert and executive coach Roxi Bahar Hewertson provides insights and advice for avoiding these all-too-common business bumps in the road. She defines and explores the ARC employee life cycle: Acquisition (hire right), Retention (nurture right), Closure (fire right). Acquiring and retaining talent, and eventually bringing closure when employees leave, is a relational, not a transactional process.
Hire Right, Fire Right successfully guides decision makers through those key interactions with new and current employees arming leaders with a powerful set of tangible tools to help ensure their organizations are well equipped to take on these talent management challenges - and win.
By following Hewertson's three systems of hiring, developing, and terminating employees, decision makers will be empowered to:
Dramatically increase your company's success rate of hiring the right people for the right jobMeasurably boost employee retention rates Significantly lower the risk of lawsuits, arbitrations, and damage to your organization's reputation if things end badly

Recenzii
Retaining employees that an organization has spent time and money to hire and train is a common conundrum for managers; possibly second only to hiring the best and the brightest candidates. [Hewertson] focuses on those topics in the book's first two sections-hiring and retention-presented in the form of roadmap diagrams that move through recommendations in each area . . . Rather than following a roadmap, the section on firing offers suggestions for handling three types of departures: involuntary, voluntary, and layoffs. Each section is bolstered by multiple pages of worksheets and templates in the resources section. VERDICT Sound advice presented in a clear, easy-to-follow format. Hewerston's breadth of knowledge spanning many work environments shows through a variety of examples and case studies."
I have known, and worked with, Roxi for many years. Hire Right, Fire Right gives those of you who haven't had that privilege a sense of who she is: smart, honest, clear-minded and values driven. Her reflections and advice are incredibly helpful for every leader - those new to the role and those with years of experience. At this time of significant change in the workplace, this practical advice will help anyone who aspires to employ a diverse workforce that is engaged in advancing organizational priorities. Roxi knows her stuff and she shares what she knows in a straightforward and practical way. Read this book!
Roxi's book is about hiring, growing, and keeping good employees at all levels. It's a well-written 'manual' in that it provides practical step-by-step and tested recipes for hiring the right people in the first place, building their confidence, skill, and motivation, and retaining them for the long-run. You can't ask for more than that.
In her new book, Roxi Hewerston offers a thorough and practical guide for something that's usually either fraught with difficulties or avoided all together! This is a book to be read slowly and implemented carefully. My bet is you will enjoy this resource, which is full of Roxi's hard-won wisdom from her many years of experience and learning about this topic.
Roxi certainly has a knack for communicating complicated ideas in a very accessible and directly applicable way. The book's checklists and work sheets alone are worth way more than the price of admission - thousands of dollars of consulting advice wrapped up in the modest price of a book.
Roxi succinctly lists and describes all of the steps leaders should take in their recruitment, nurturing, and when necessary, terminating of employees for whom they have responsibility. This book serves executives at all organizational levels and is a powerful reminder of good leadership practices.
Hire Right, Fire Right is much more than a book. It is a road map of practical advice, insights and resources filled with 'ah-ha' moments.and it is a fantastic read!

As usual, Roxi delivers. This is a wonderfully readable guide to hiring and firing that is filled with voices of experience, good humor and practical advice. If you have employees, you need this book.
Finally! A no-nonsense guide to hiring the right person in the right way. Thank you, Roxi, for expanding on the very definition of leadership-getting the right people to support and expand the culture needed for success.
