The book explains that many hiring failures stem not from what managers are doing right, but from unnoticed mistakes in their approach, such as relying too heavily on interviews, overlooking cultural fit, or misjudging candidates’ real skills and motivations. Through real-life stories and examples, Kumler highlights how workplace dynamics, hidden biases, and poor evaluation methods can lead to bad hires. She offers clear advice on what behaviors to stop, what to improve, and how to refine the hiring process to select the right people more consistently, emphasizing awareness, better questioning, and smarter decision-making. \u003cspan class=\"\" data-state=\"closed\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2 data-section-id=\"17spcsk\" data-start=\"921\" data-end=\"942\"\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"943\" data-end=\"1490\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"hover:entity-accent entity-underline inline cursor-pointer align-baseline\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"whitespace-normal\"\u003eEmily Kumler\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e is an American entrepreneur, journalist, and business expert known for writing accessible guides on workplace success and leadership.
