Hire Slow, Fire Fast
The "hire slow, fire fast" mantra doesn't mean you take months to bring on new employees, or that you fire team members based on knee-jerk reactions. Instead it means being careful about who you hire and who you keep. It means taking the time to find the right people and admitting you made a bad hire as soon as you realize it.
Join us as our panel of experts will help you understand how “hire slow, fire fast” can increase the talent level of your organization and protect you from unnecessary risks.
