Every HR executive and retained executive recruiter has heard a client say of a finalist candidate, "We're not there yet" This usually means  "this person fits the bill on paper, but we not going forward to make a hire."  Sometimes "we're not there yet,"  means, we thought we knew what we wanted, but now that we see it, we don't. In the very worst cases "we're not there yet," means, go find more people exactly like this one (who we just decided not to hire.) How does one fix this problem and hire a champion for this job?  How to Hire a Champion is about uncovering all of the information that will help you to recognize a champion and go after him or her.  If you have ever launched a  search for a "C" level executive, you know that a senior candidate pool will be full of people with great resumes.  Many senior level job descriptions, with their lists of skills and experience muddy the waters and obscure the company's  priorities.  How to Hire a Champion helps an executive or a hiring team define what a company is after and put candidates through truly helpful screening.  I smiled all the way through this book.  The process presented will get you a long way toward hiring a champion and it may have your hiring team cheering.
