Comments on: Paying New Employees to Quit http://management.curiouscatblog.net/2008/05/25/paying-new-employees-to-quit/ Management Improvement focused on Deming, lean thinking, innovation, customer focus, six sigma, etc. Wed, 08 Feb 2012 14:35:23 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.3.1 By: Josh Carr http://management.curiouscatblog.net/2008/05/25/paying-new-employees-to-quit/comment-page-1/#comment-32414 Josh Carr Mon, 30 Jun 2008 16:42:31 +0000 http://management.curiouscatblog.net/?p=1036#comment-32414 I had read about the Zappos view on hiring - and I think it is amazing. I don't know how many times I have called companies and then get off the phone mad and just wondering why the person I just talked to does quit, because clearly they hate their job. I recently made all my employees take this <a href="http://www.mshare.net/aboutus-quiz.html">survey</a> online. We then discussed it's contents - and there were a number of very enlightening views shared that has helped my company a lot. This survey discusses customer service down to the basics. It is very interesting. I hope someone else can find it useful. I had read about the Zappos view on hiring – and I think it is amazing.
