In a groundbreaking survey, Leadership IQ found that 46% of all new hires fail within their first 18 months. But here’s the real shocker: 89% of them fail for attitudinal reasons – not skills – which begs a very important question …
Why do most organizations focus on skills when attitude is the ultimate metric for success?
Sure, skills are incredibly important, but the presence or absence of a particular skill set is about the easiest thing to test in an interview. Attitude is much harder to recognize, and that’s why attitude should be your #1 focus during the hiring process, reports Leadership IQ.
