"STAFFING YOUR COMPANY
FOR LONG-TERM SUCCESS" |
|
| "Jim Stedt's Talent Balancing brings the complex
task of matching today's human resources requirements with corporate needs
and responsibilities into much clearer focus. Candidates today are balancing
home, work, and extended family obligations; while employers must consider
a plethora of laws covering compliance, confidentiality and so many other
issues. These clear explanations on how to find and hire the right candidate,
as well as how to keep trusted employees, couldn't have come at a better
time."

"Jim Stedt's thorough knowledge and inside understanding
of how companies incorrectly position people is enlightening. His plain
talk gets to the basic issues of hiring people and explaining how to make
efficient use of the talent in your company. Our organization works with
numerous startup companies that do not have staffing experience and can
benefit from the step-by-step information in Talent Balancing. This book
is a must read in today's competitive environment."

"Talent Balancing is an excellent book that describes
a hands-on approach to the most important job in a company finding, hiring
and retaining the best people. This book provides a step-by-step guide
that is good for both the novice and seasoned hiring managers."

"Talent Balancing is a practical resource for
the e-hiring and staffing era of the new millennium. With 'how-to's,'
case examples, and an immense array of resources, it will help managers
involved in hiring, managing and retaining staff to do it more effectively
- and easily. Jim Stedt has taken What Color is My Parachute? and shown
us all how to pick the more appropriate colors, and how to get those colorful
resources to organize and blend into a strategic rainbow that heads straight
to a pot of gold."

"Talent Balancing is an important work for people
in business and those studying business. This work is grounded in reality
and will be extremely useful to its readers. It includes the very concepts
upon which we know success is based in business. Its readers will see
themselves in its pages and see opportunities for their own success and
that of their companies. Talent Balancing advocates the use of technology,
but it especially stresses the need for personal interaction. The critical
essence is that Talent Balancing was born of research and practical experience.
It is my opinion that this book will serve its readers well."

Talent balancing is a common-sense approach to hiring
and managing a staff. The book provides real life examples of what to
do and more importantly what "not" to do when building an organization.
Jim Stedt's insightful analysis and solutions for today's staffing challenges,
demonstrates his hands-on experience. Talent balancing will educate, inform
and entertain readers of all job responsibilities, experience levels and
industries.

Having trouble finding and keeping the talent you need
at your company? This book addresses the issues of how to recruit the
right employees for your company. For instance, I have seen companies
that hire good people, only to lose them by not giving them the right
challenges and career paths. Or the people that are hired turn out not
to have the skills that needed to be checked before they are hired. I
particularly like the forms and checklists in the book that help you through
the recruiting process. Recommended.

This is an excellent source. It is a practical reference
for anyone establishing, maintaining and/or developing an organization.
This book is a quick read that is enhanced by effective use of case studies.
The information contained is contemporary and includes details of search
methodology. The sample forms and checklists are a good starting point
for the practitioner. It is evident that the viewpoint of the writer is
that of someone that is experienced, "hands on" and operating
in today's environment. This book is a solid addition to your technical
library.
