Right People, Right Roles
Know exactly who you’re hiring and how they’ll perform on the job on Day 1, and Day 100Hiring shouldn’t be this hard
You’ve been here before: you hire someone who seems perfect on paper, nails the interview, and checks all the boxes. But as weeks go by, things just don’t click. Communication issues arise, expectations aren’t met, and eventually, after a lot of time and money, you’re back to square one—starting the search all over again.
Hiring shouldn’t feel like a gamble. Yet, too often, even the most promising candidates fail to meet the demands of the role.
In fact 37.9% of employees that leave an organisation don’t make it past 12 months.
Why? Because traditional hiring focuses on what’s on a resume, not who the person really is.
Why Traditional Hiring Misses the Mark
Most hiring processes focus on two things:
1: Experience & Skills – What’s on the CV – Let’s call that the Briefcase.
2: Values and Culture Fit – If they will ‘fit in” here – Let’s call that the Heart.
But even after checking these boxes, you can end up with someone who doesn’t thrive in the role. That’s because traditional hiring misses a core 3rd piece of what makes up a person and predicts performance:
3: Behaviours and Cognitive Speed – how they will show up in the role – Their Head.
When these don’t match what’s required for the role, no amount of training can create a good fit.
You end up with the wrong person in the wrong role, leading to disengagement, poor performance, and, eventually, turnover.
The real cost of overlooking Behavioural & Cognitive Ability (the ‘Head’)
Imagine hiring someone for a fast-paced, client-facing role—only to realize they take time to connect and prefer quiet, detail-oriented tasks. Or placing someone in a strategic, decision-making position, only to find they struggle to think quickly under pressure.
These mismatches don’t just affect the individual – they drag down the whole team, leading to:
Lost Productivity and Poor Performance
You spend more time managing, training, and fixing issues.
Turnover Costs
When they leave, you’re back to square one, wasting time, energy, and resources.
Disengagement
A hire who feels out of place won’t perform at their best. Worse, they negatively impact your good people
