This book takes an unconventional approach to how organizations should evaluate and manage employee culture and expectations. Everyone has their own concept of what their role in the organization they work entails and what the meaning or reason they are driven to succeed. Every team member and potential team member within an organization has a unique definition of success for themselves and their responsibilities in their role and employers must explore an employee and candidates ideals in depth before just picking the one that looks to have the most qualifications on paper. Why does this person want this role in my company and what drives them to succeed? In most cases, perhaps all, there isn't a mold that everyone will fit and enabling employees and employers to explore and define their unique individuality and needs before making a hiring decision will make for a more successful culture and long term meaningful employee engagement leading to lower turnover, greater stability, and increased profitability for companies and their employees. This book delves in to the psychology and thought processes behind individual employee motivations and tools proven successful in the past and how you can apply them to your company.
Unfortunately many if not most companies today seek the employee that fit a perceived notion of qualifications instead of truly exploring the passions and desired pursuits of their employee candidates to best match them to the role assumed in their new career. As an outside the box, unconventional, they may have broken the mold employee myself that has achieved company defined #1 top success within most organizations I have had an opportunity to be a part of, I find it refreshing that these ideals are coming to light through the pages of this book. Early and throughout my career I found it demoralizing that so many large, established Fortune 1000 like companies would not take a look at me because I did not fit their conceptual profile of what an ideal employee would encompass, so I found my success competing and winning against those same organizations in smaller, unconventional thinking, successful organizations that embraced some of the unique thought processes brought to light inside the pages of this book.
As a business owner today, I will embrace and utilize the principles in this book for all hiring decisions.
