The Right Hire

Mastering the Art of SMART Talent Management

By Patrick Ropella


Paperback, BW$19.95
Hardcover, BW $31.96

Autographed / Personalized Versions

In most organizations, making the right hire means the difference between success and failure. In health care it means the difference between life and death.

The Right Hire was written examining the staffing process of a fictitious hospital system – Prestige Medical Center and is referenced as a continuous theme throughout this book.  If the right hire has great value in a hospital system, where hiring the right person (or the wrong person for that matter) can mean the difference between life and death – how valuable is the right or wrong hire in your own organization? With this in mind, Prestige Medical Center could just as easily have been any type of organization imaginable - including your own organization.

“The most important decisions that business people make are not what decisions, but who decisions.”

Jim Collins, Author of Good to Great: Why Some Companies Make the Leap…And Others Don’t

At the Ropella Group, we know from over 25 years of experience working repeatedly with many of the world’s largest chemical, high technology, consumer product, energy and health care organizations that the SMART Talent Management strategies outlined in this book can cross all boundaries. Regardless of what industry – product - market or organization you work in, where you are located globally or what functional roles you focus on hiring for.

What matters is that you study the strategies of SMART Talent Management and implement the tactics, practices, forms and tools of the SMART Search System.

“Nothing matters more in winning than getting the right people on the field.  All the clever strategies and advanced technologies in the world are nowhere near as effective without great people to put them to work.”

Jack Welch, former Chairman of GE and Author of Winning
