Getting the best people to join your company

Research shows that how adept your company is at recruiting top talent influences your bottom line. Organizations that excel in their recruitment efforts experience 3.5 times higher revenue growth than companies that don’t. But it’s not always easy to find the right people for your company and get them on board. To help solve this challenge, my latest post on Inc.com shares three strategies that we use at Pluralsight to recruit—and keep—superior talent. In “How to Get the Best People to Join Your Team,” you’ll learn about how to:

• Start with the end in mind by selecting your company’s core values before you start the hiring process

• Rethink the traditional view of “A-players” to include candidates who are passionate about continuous improvement

• Hire people who aren’t just as good as you, but better than you

By taking these three steps rather than seeking top talent based on skills-based, objective criteria alone, you’ll attract people who represent the qualities that are most important to your organization long-term, who crave learning opportunities, and who can help you learn and grow as a leader while pushing the entire company forward to a whole new level.
