Building Your Management Team 

The Skill Set Matrix™ is a key proprietary tool invented by Bob Norton, our Founder, which will help you objectively determine who is qualified for what position at each level.  It is available nowhere else in the world as a copyrighted work. It breaks down hiring decisions and process into the three most important dimensions objectively. 

Most hiring decisions are clouded by personal feelings and insufficient analysis of the skills needed for success at the job. People often hire who they like, as opposed to who is most qualified. Often there is reliance on previous titles without validation that previous experience is directly relevant to the new company. 

A VP of Marketing at a big company is a vastly different job than a VP of Marketing at a startup. Many times, people are hired from big companies and those people can become fish out of water in smaller companies.  People from larger companies are used to having a staff of specialists and suddenly must roll up their sleeves and do everything themselves - which they have not done in a decade.  And they can even endanger your company's survival. 

One attendee at The CEO boot camp said the Skill Set Matrix™ would have saved him $40 million. Because he hired an unqualified person for a C-Level position who would have been eliminated from the hiring process early on if he had used this tool to screen at interviews. 

Don't let one or two bad hiring decisions destroy your company. Most people, even recruiters, do not even think about these criteria before hiring. And it is easy once you learn The Skill Set Matrix(TM). 

The course covers:

  1. Building Your Management Team – The Skill Set Matrix™ - Agenda and Dimensions
  2. The 3-Dimensions of The Skill Set Matrix™ and the three ways to use it
  3. Depth of Experience, Blink and The Wisdom Pyramid and The Pilot Story
  4. The Pilot Story continued, Hiring Outside Your Own Expertise Areas
  5. Example of Using The Skill Set Matrix™
  6. What about Hiring Outside Help? Virtual people? Contractors? Consultants?
  7. Exceptions to the Usual Process/Rules, Recap of Key Points for Hiring Success and Retention

This tool will help you hire better, plan your team/organization and even help create a clear development plan of employees to improve tenure and morale.
