What Does a Bad Hire Cost You?

I’ll never forget the day I had to fire my first direct report. I felt like I had failed her, and I could see the humiliation and dejection in her eyes. Yuck! Making a bad hire not only ends up feeling bad, it costs a lot in time, morale, productivity, and so much more.

I especially appreciate the reminder to always conduct reference checks. We can all hire smarter with these tips!
