Recruiting executives

At Shirley Smith & Co we can advise businesses in the Chelmsford area on many aspects of business life. The following checklist indicates qualities to look for when recruiting executives...

Whether you recruit executives from outside your organisation or appoint them from within, it is important to know that the people you choose have what it takes to excel at the decision-making level.

If you identify people within your organisation who display even some of these traits, you might consider discreetly grooming them for bigger things further down the line.

Often, recruiting executives internally can be more cost-effective and more successful in the long term than appointing them from outside.
