Hiring the right talent is the key determinant of success for a business or not-for-profit.  A core competency of Entrepreneurial Consulting is recruiting of staff.  Most small businesses either hire staff on the fly without the use of proper steps and end up with less than ideal staff or use recruiting firms who often charge 30-35% of the employee’s salary and too often do little more than send over candidates they happen to have in their files.  When small businesses do the hiring internally, typically it falls on the CEO who should be focusing on bigger picture items or it is put on the shoulders of an office manager who typically is ill prepared for this important role. Entrepreneurial Consulting brings another option.
