Why Recruiting The Best Employees Is Still The Best Strategy

Strength of an organization lies in the quality of people it recruits

. Employees are the real assets of an organization. Therefore wisdom lies in recruiting the best employees.

A smart employer understands the needs of his organization and is not hesitant to hire the top talent if he can afford it. He is secure enough to employ people smarter than him. He is smart enough to keep his personal opinions, biases and prejudices if he hasn't mastered them yet, to himself and have the best team possible working for him and for the organization.

After the sub-prime crisis, these are turbulent times and to survive this recession and its consequences you need good teams. To excel in challenging times such as these you need to be with quality employees who understand the scenario and constantly and consistently pursue the goals with passion. When you recruit the best employees you can focus on the organizational priorities. You waste less time on irrelevant issues that normally crop up and eat into your time.

Recruiting the best employees from the talent pool is a good strategy but one need to be sure that the best employees hired are also the right employees. Jim Collins in his famous book 'Good to Great' provides ample proof through his comprehensive surveys and researches that a good company can indeed make that giant leap and be a great company if its employees are the best - smart, talented and world class. The best thing a recruiter can do for a company hence is to recruit the best there is.

Achieving goals is comparatively easy when one has the teams of right recruits. Assembling a good team of professionals is thus of prime importance. When you recruit the best employees you can be sure of high execution standard. A good team understands the goals and the visions and has the capacity of right execution. If you are not recruiting the best employees, you might waste and good amount of your time and resources on people who do not share your goals and who do not see your vision as their vision and the execution falters.

Recruiting the best employees is adding to the assets of an organisation. The best employees are driven and self- motivated. They want to excel - both as an individual and as a team member of the company. They constantly monitor their own progress and evaluate their own performance against the high standards they set for themselves. They do not need 'baby sitting'.

Right employees understand the difference between 'Holding a job' and 'Holding a responsibility.' They understand organizational goals and vision and are quick to integrate their own personal goals and visions with those of the organization. Their value system is the same as that of the organization and their core beliefs are the ones shared by the organization too. They are the right people sitting in the right seats in the bus that is moving towards its goal. Hence go for the best, by recruiting the best employees.
