Everyone knows that the strength of our organizations is only as good as the people we employ. Having the right people on your team is essential. Getting the right people in place might be one of the most challenging aspects of running a business. In our current market, filling openings and finding the right talent for your organization can be difficult. With an unprecedented labor shortage, you may need to think outside your usual hiring process.

Hiring good people requires more time, effort and money than most realize. Worse, it costs your operation time and money when key positions go unfilled. People are working on tasks that anyone could do (you included) rather than spending their time on things that only they can do. Having the right people in place can be profoundly intangible in its effects (sometimes hidden). Still, we would assert that nothing makes an operation run smoother, a stronger team, customers more pleased and stress levels decrease faster than effective hires.
