Crescendus™- Hire based on unique fit, not pedigree- Tip of the Day (July 18, 2016)
- 1. Crescendus™ Tip of the Day: July 18, 2016 © Crescendus™ 2016. All Rights Reserved. www.crescendus.com HIRE BASED ON UNIQUE FIT, NOT PEDIGREE Most companies focus on excellent backgrounds (education, work experience at marquee companies etc.) as the primary hiring criteria. We recommend focusing on the right fit. Companies that are in dynamic change environments should focus on hiring management members that have been battle tested in chaotic and fast paced work environments, living with limited resources and hands-on experience (with minimal staff and direct reports). Don’t hire management personnel that have lived a comfortable (pampered) existence in sheltered environments, who enjoy endless meetings, extended support staff, and the indecisiveness of matrixed environments. For companies that are currently facing a crisis (regulatory, commoditization, etc.), focus on hiring management teams that have survived a prior crisis. It is more important to focus on relevant fit and their ability to quickly learn and adapt, rather than their past pedigree (which may not translate into success at your company).
