Gallup finds that organizations fail to choose the right candidate for leadership positions over 82% of the time. In terms of employee morale, exit interviews and workplace culture surveys show that toxic bosses are the number one reason employees leave or disengage from the organization. Libraries that recruit better bosses tend to have healthier, happier organizations with more inclusive work environments.
During this informative webinar, Elaina Norlin shares:
- How to identify common management/supervisor/ leadership recruitment mistakes.
- How to create “leadership vision statements” that will provide more focus and clarity to support long term strategic planning.
- How to align your new “leadership vision statements” with potential candidate interview questions.
