Hire Right, First Time: A Practical Guide for Staffing Christian Organistions

By Dr Ken Byrne and Rev Peter Corney

Every Christian organisation wishes to extend God's grace in word and deed. Doing so needs people. The right people.

Together with a free 120 page User Guide, this book shows you exactly how to chose the right people.

Have you ever hired the wrong person?

Watched your Kingdom goals stall because the wrong person slowed things down?

Worried about how you would manage a poor performer?

Saw the wrong person damage the workplace culture you've worked so hard to build?

Saw the pain to your good staff having to carry the weight of someone who wasn't doing their share?

If you have answered yes to even one of these questions, you have a great deal of company. Hiring the right person is difficult. Many people can look good at the casual interview. And few Christian leaders have had any training in how to carry out this crucial function.

These two books tell you everything you need to know.

You'll learn the six challenges that come with every hiring decision, and eight more you face when hiring for a Christian organisation. Five steps for making a Job Assessment really useful are outlined.

Four common misperceptions about hiring and four unavoidable truths that go with hiring are explained.

You'll learn twelve secrets for attracting the best candidates. A series of structured interviews, based a combined seventy years of experience, show you how to see behind the mask that that every applicant brings to the first meeting.

You'll learn how candidates give away valuable clues about their real personality through seemingly meaningless throw away comments.

Intuition - or gut feel - can play an important role in hiring decisions. You'll learn three techniques to harness this data and test this against objective data.

You will discover a comprehensive system for making the final decision that prevents common errors.

When and how to fire staff are outlined in detail. Ten easy to apply techniques for keeping your best staff are explained/

Hiring mistakes are expensive for all concerned. If investing in this book saves you from even one mistake, it will be one of the smartest steps you have ever taken.
