Introducing the “Small Business Hiring System”

Introducing the “Small Business Hiring System”

Over the past 15 years, I have been helping organizations hire top talent by conducting Selecting Winners™ workshops, and in most cases, the clients have been medium or large sized organizations.

I’m happy to introduce the “Small Business Hiring System”. Now smaller businesses can get the same Selecting Winners™ training that the larger companies have had – in an easy cost effective way. This is a web based training program covering all of the elements that the full day workshop covers. This program helps the small business owner recruit, hire and retain top talent using the same process used by some of the top companies in the world.

If you would like to improve the effectiveness of your hiring, click here to watch a short video that describes the Small Business Hiring System features and costs.
