The Role of Cultural Fit in Hiring – June 15th , Norwich

Janet Welch 0


Your candidate has every single one of the technical skills required for the open position. Looks like this is a “no brainer” hire, right?  Not so fast.  What about cultural fit?  Time and time again it has been proven that a new hire’s success is significantly predicated upon his or her ability to thrive in the environment or culture.  Join us for this dynamic interactive dialogue!

Our Featured Speaker Susan Lesser, MBA, MS, Partner, PlusOne Group will delve into the following learning points in this interactive presentation:

  •  Pros/Cons of Cultural Fit;
  • Evidence in support of Cultural Fit;
  • Financial ramification of not considering Cultural Fit;
  • How to include Cultural Fit in your hiring process.

Benefits of this session:

  • Retention increases by 30% when cultural factors are taken into consideration;
  • Misunderstanding and misuse of Cultural Fit can result in outcomes that are 180-degrees from that which was intended;
  • Being able to argue, with hard figures, the case for Cultural Fit.

Sign up now.   And,  this is a Bring-A-Friend Event!  If your guest joins HRLA at the meeting, you receive a $10 Dunkin Donuts Gift Card!
