TopGrading: How Leading Companies Win by Hiring, Coaching and Keeping the Best People

The size of this book alone is enough to scare anyone away, but when you find out that it contains seven appendices that can be used immediately in your organization, then it is well worth it. The author, Bradford Smart, a leading U.S. executive search consultant, touts his philosophy that companies should only hire "A" level candidates throughout every job category. His methodology is not unique, but it is thorough and as reported by his clients, has proven to be successful. If you want a systematic recruitment approach with prepared assessment tools, then this book is for you.
