Notes de l'éditeur
- 3 traits indicate an employee’s ability to do a job, and each reveals different employee qualities. > Many companies use personality and skill tests in the hiring process . > Personality: most difficult-to-change w/o psychotherapy > Moving up the pyramid, skills are more easily and directly trained - because foundational skills provide the basis upon which job-specific kills can be built. > FTR skills are the skills needed to some degree in every job - skills such as reading, writing & math. Effective employee development starts with selecting employees who have foundational skills that can be built upon . > Selecting employees based on both personality fit and skill-development potential results in a higher level of job performance, employee satisfaction, and organizational productivity. > Foundational skill are often overlooked in the selection process, mostly because businesses assume if an individual has a diploma or a certain set of courses on one’s resume, that person has requisite skills. That is a dangerous assumption that can lead to expensive “false-positive” hires.
