Who Is the New How

Business leaders in all sectors consistently report that finding the perfect people to fill critical roles in their organizations remains one of the most difficult parts of their work. Identifying, attracting, and retaining top performers is a daunting challenge for anyone, let alone those working in markets and industries where talent is at a premium and companies compete ferociously to hire the best people. In Who Is the New How: Strategies to Find, Recruit, and Create the Best Teams , a team of accomplished talent acquisition and retention experts delivers an eye-opening and practical discussion of how the world's best tech companies are able to regularly and quickly find the right people for the right roles. The authors also demonstrate how to reduce turnover by identifying candidates aligned with the company's mission and culture, assemble a high-performing team, and create meaningful experiences for their employees from onboarding until retirement. The book includes real-world case studies grounded in stories of human achievement, many of which offer an inside look into some of the most famous brands coming out of Silicon Valley. You'll learn why phrases like, "Just get a butt in the seat," and metrics like "time-to-fill" have no place in an organization that seeks to get high performers into the positions where they can have the most impact. An essential and exciting new take on one of the most critical components of enduring competitive advantage in any company, Who Is the New How will earn a place in the libraries of managers, executives, board members, and other business leaders, as well as human resources professionals, recruiters, and professionals involved in finding, attracting, and retaining specialized and executive talent.
