Rapid intervention is needed to solve a “wrong” hiring issue. Sooner, the better!
Q: How fast should you move when you’ve made a hiring mistake?
– Rafael Rodriguez, Santiago, Chile
A: In a w
ord, “very”! So fast, in fact, that if you’re moving at the right speed in taking care of a hiring mistake, it will probably feel that you are just moving a bit too fast. That’s OK. In every case, a rapid intervention is better for the organisation, your own career and even the person that you’re letting go as he would never be able to find a comfortable place in an organisation where he is considered a shameful “hiring error”! Look, hiring great people is brutally hard. New managers are lucky to get it right “half” the time. And even executives with decades of experience will tell you that they make the right calls only 75 percent of the time – and that too when they are at the very best of a hiring season. The problem is, though, that the stakes are so high right now. Never has it been considered so very important to field the team with the best players. Every smart idea matters. Every ounce of passion makes a difference. You cannot have a black hole in your organization where a star should be, can you? And don’t you think that if ever there should appear one, especially one who has just been hired, you should get rid of the same, at the earliest possible!
