Listen to the latest 60 second episode of Integrity Moments with Rick Boxx
Integrity Moments is a 60 second workday devotional that provides business leaders with helpful insight into what the Bible says about our work and how we can fully integrate our faith into our vocational calling.

Hiring for the short term is a trap into which business leaders can easily fall. Faced with an emergency shortage of people, the task of hiring can become a fire drill.

Hiring for the short term is ineffective for long term company growth. Making hasty hiring decisions is reactive and causes many possible consequences.

Hiring slowly in times of emergency may seem counterproductive, but the long-term sustainability of the business will be greatly enhanced.

Proverbs 29:20 says, “Do you see a man who is hasty in his words? There is more hope for a fool than for him.”

Whatever the pressing emergency is in your business today consider how slowing down the hiring process may be a better choice for current and future success. Hasty hiring has a poor result.
