Hiring and Letting Go by Craig Nathanson Why hire in the first place Charlotte Olympia shoes?Any
employer hires for the same reason, they have a problem which needs to be fixed.
When hiring, the best manager looks at three following factors: if the person
has the ability to do the role, if the person has motivation to do the role, and
if the person fits well with the existing staff. Too many times, people are
hired just on the basis of their resume. Just because someone has the right
skills doesn抰 mean they will want to do the role which has been designed by
someone else. This is why it is critical during the interviewing process to
understand whether the candidate is motivated to do the work he or she is
applying for. Equally important is to understand if the candidate will fit in
well with the existing staff. This includes personality, work style, and skill抯
background. The best manager knows that hiring the right person is important not
only for getting the new job done, but also for helping the existing team to be
more productive.Who is responsible for employee success?This might surprise you,
but it is not only the employee who is responsible for their success!
Organizations are quick to take the credit when the new person does well, and
they are equally quick to blame the employee when things don抰 work out. The
success of the hired person depends on the whole system. For example, a
demanding micro-manager will get less performance out of the same person who,
instead, might be doing well enough working for a smarter manger. Most people
don抰 wake up in the morning and decide that today would be a good day to fail at
work. Most people arrive at work with hope, anticipation, and feeling that they
will do their best, and that they will have a productive day. The best manager
knows that the system, which a person works under, determines success. When
things go wrong, The best manager will quickly examine the system to understand
what failed. For example, let抯 say, a bank expects its customer service
employees, who work at the desks in the main customer waiting area, to open at
least 5 new accounts per day. This bank decides to punish one employee who
consistently for a week was opening only 1 account per day post by haiyan701.
The employee is upset; especially, knowing that there is not much depended on
him or her. The best manager examines the system to see what is wrong. Upon
investigation, The best manager finds out that many factors may have lead to a
poor week. The bank抯 credibility may have been impacted by a news article which
was describing some ethical issues in the bank抯 operations. Or a new bank just
opened down the block and was offering free iPods to any new customer, who
opened an account. The best manager involves the staff to see what new ideas and
plans should be put into a place. There is no blame to pass around.How to
measure new hire assimilationMost of the time once a person is hired, there is
little formal measurement on whether the person is working out other than the
probationary review. The best manager knows that the best way to measure is
asking a new person on a regular basis how things are going, if a person is
happy with the work, if objectives are clear for the person. The best manager
wants to know what the new employee needs in order to succeed. The best manager
reviews the system and tries to understand whether it is supporting the new
employee, and if the new person has good relationships with the peers. The best
manager might look at whether the full potential of a new person was used. The
best manager will actually ask the new employee if the role is meeting his or
her expectations. While these measurements are subjective, the important factor
is that they involve both parties in the assessment.What to do if things don抰
work outOf course there will be times when things don抰 work. Many organizations
move quickly to fire the employee. This should always be the last resort. Firing
a person has many negative effects on the organization. First of all, morale
suffers with those employees who remain; many times this same function will be
rehired within a year at 2-3 times of the cost. The best manager, instead, tries
to understand what went wrong, and if it can be fixed. If not, then a two way
conversation takes place and a plan is agreed upon. This plan might involve
retraining, it might involve a job rotation, or it might involve a period of
time where the employee is given time to interview and pursue other
opportunities in the organization. The organization gives these people top
priority Charlotte Olympia Kitty
Flats. Sadly, many organizations, instead, use this redeployment pool as a
quick step towards abandonment and termination.How to let go in a humanistic
wayThere will be times when people do need to be let go. It is very important
how this occurs. Many organizations call outplacement firms to handle this
process. An employee comes to work in the morning and meets a stranger?Then, 60
minutes later, someone else is cleaning up the office and bringing employee抯
personal items to the parking lot. Many people are treated as criminals while
letting them go. The best manager meets personally with the person impacted and
answers all questions after discussing the reasons why the person is being
dismissed. The best manager explains the next steps which include outplacement
assistance for a fairly long period of time over many months to help the person
find a new work. The best manager knows this will help the credibility of the
organization. When people are terminated in inhumane ways, the existing
employees hear about this. Instead of doing their work, they will worry if they
are going to be next Charlotte
Olympia. As a result, they work in fear and in reactionary mode. When people
are let go in humanistic ways, existing employees know at least if things don抰
work out, they will have support in finding something else. The best manager
knows that this is the right approach for a person and the right moral approach
in a society.Learning summary and next stepsThe best manager knows that it抯 the
system that determines the behavior and performance of its members. What is the
process in your organization for hiring, evaluating, and letting go? Does it
make sense? What parts need change and why? Only by asking these questions, the
organization will have a healthy system where people want to work.
