    • A necessity for any small business owner
`How to Hire, Train, & Keep the Best Employees' is an excellent resource for all small business owners. This book contains all of the vital information you will need to achieve higher employee productivity, better time management for employees and managers, and decreased turnover for your company. Podmoroff's book will also teach you how to effectively advertise for a position, screen potential employees, and motivate employees enough to make them want to stay with your company. All of the information in this book is extremely helpful, but I was most impressed by the samples and templates provided in the book and on the CD-ROM. The book includes sample forms for applications, interview sheets, and orientation outlines to demonstrate the guidelines that Podmoroff explains. The CD-ROM takes things one step further by providing you with printable human resource templates for applications, follow-up letters, and performance analysis forms. Between the book that teaches you all you need to know and the CD-ROM that puts the theories into action, you will be well on your way to running a more productive, less stressful business. On a side note, I was also very happy to see that some of the profits from this book are donated to The Humane Society of the United States. Even if I didn't think that this book is the best of its kind--which I do--I would rather invest my money in the author and publishing company who support a good cause. ... show more

    • not useful for small business or service company
A few things about this book: 1. It is really designed for a larger company or corporation, in a traditional office setting, not useful for small business or service company. 2. The sections about interviewing and applications are "okay". Did not check out the disk with forms. 3. The entire book is filled with typos, kind of funny considering its subject. 4. The worst part about this book, and why in my opinion it sucks is that it pretty much tells you to baby your employees and think about their wants and needs, etc. If you run your company and HR department like this books says, your employees will walk all over you. Really another example of how modern generations feel entitled, this book pretty much says your employees are entitled to do whatever they want and if your reprimand them your a bad boss. Stopped reading it 3/4 of the way through as the bs just got thicker and thicker, went out and reprimanded all of the employees, even those who didn't deserve it just to make me feel better, ... show more

    • Best Book
This is quite possibly the best book I have ever read about employee relations. It starts off with how to find the right candidate. How to advertise when there are openings, how to conduct the interview and many more helpful topics. The best part, however, is on how to retain the best employees. It talks about communication problems and how they can inadvertently cause conflict and problems within a business. The author then spends considerable time addressing ways to convey a bad message -such as you screwed up- in a productive way so that the employee doesn't feel bombarded with criticism and can begin working towards a solution. Chapter 3 is a great reference even for communication within personal relationships. The author then goes on to discuss affective leadership and team building. All of these things will go a long way to create a great and productive crew. I especially liked the discussion on proper employee training. The author emphasizes finding the right person to fit into an organization and then training that person on what is expected of them. All too often I've seen people just dumped into positions without even a job description. No one can possibly work effectively that way. The book also comes along with a great CD-ROM which has templates for employee applications, interview questions, a confidentiality agreement and more. ... show more

    • Hire and Keep the Best
Almost all small business owners struggle with one universal task: hiring and keeping quality employees. Author Dianna Podmoroff has finally written a guidebook that offers expert guidance for hiring top-notch employees, sound advice for keeping them, and tips on follow-up training. From the first chapter on Successful Recruiting Strategies to the last chapter on Employee Retention Essentials this guide flexes its muscle with valuable, and more importantly, useful information. The accompanying CD-ROM offers a convenient source of information that can be quickly accessed and printed; including templates for professional employee applications, samples of follow-up letters, interview analysis and performance reviews. Two of the best features in this handy reference tool are the Leadership and Team-Building and Motivation chapters. Many hiring guides tend to gloss over, or even omit, one of the most important aspects of successful hiring: keeping, training and developing quality employees that have a vested interest in overall company success. Podmoroff outlines wonderful ideas, which more companies should implement, such as job sharing, flexible schedules, shared leave banks and phased retirement. Overall, this book is a must-have reference book that will ultimately give you the edge over your competition. ... show more
