Recruiting, Selecting and Developing the Best Leaders - 5 CPE credits September 15, 2011

Gone are the days when the primary function of HR was to generate employee policies and enforce employment law. Today, HR is expected to maintain and recruit a pipeline of human capital that will meet the organization's present and future needs. Yet, the selection process used by most organizations delivers an average mis-hire rate of 40%.

Candidates are selected because of their hard skills - experience, technical competence, aptitude, but most fail because of their soft skills - leadership and management practices that include a variety of interpersonal abilities. The soft skills are actually the hard skills: hard to find, hard to acquire, hard to execute, and hard to assess.
