Many companies, including staffing firms, fail by choosing employees who have high competence but a low cultural fit, according to a recent Business Insider article.
Instead, your staffing firm should hire people who see the much bigger picture and can truly help a company thrive by aligning their career goals with your firm’s values and mission.
David Logan, John King and Halee Fischer-Wright, authors of Tribal Leadership, outline the dramatic effects of a positive culture with the right hires, including:
- Fear and stress go down as the “interpersonal friction” of working together decreases
- People seek employment in the company and stay, taking the company a long way toward winning the war for talent
- Organizational learning becomes effortless, with the tribe actively teaching its members the latest thinking and practices
- People’s overall health statistics improve. Injury rates and sick days go down
- People report feeling more alive and having more fun
