Topgrading Tips (Vol 4, No. 6) Announcing the Topgrading Quick Start Program
May 7th, 2009 . by Brad SmartANNOUNCING THE TOPGRADING QUICK START PROGRAM
The single biggest problem with Topgrading is … you know what … Topgrading is complex and a bit hard to learn! But we’re thrilled to announce the solution – the Topgrading Quick Start Program!
BACKGROUND:
Just last week an executive with a Fortune 500 company reminded me of how diligent he was in order for him to learn Topgrading. He attended one of my 2-day workshops years ago and used the revised version of my big, fat, 650-page book Topgrading to Topgrade his team in two jobs. He bought the 7-hour DVD Topgrading ToolKit and watched all of it. Topgrading helped him succeed, of course, getting his third promotion in six years. Good for him for being such a conscientious Topgrader!
But, you say, attending 2-day workshops and reading 650-page books ain’t easy in this busy life! For years managers have asked for Topgrading for Dummies, or at least a Cliff Notes version of Topgrading.
I was too stupid to think Topgrading could be simplified. But then Poppy Harlow asked me on CNN Money to summarize key Topgrading methods in 2 minutes or less and … hmm … it wasn’t hard to do, suggesting maybe Topgrading isn’t brain surgery.
THE SOLUTION: TOPGRADING QUICK START PROGRAM
Just about anyone can learn enough of the basics of Topgrading hiring in less than 1 hour to actually use several crucial Topgrading methods and experience the thrill of unprecedented insights into candidates. And, following that success and with only 1 more hour of learning, most managers can add more Topgrading methods, hire an A player, and become committed to Topgrading for life (or at least until retirement!).
