    within your company

Phase I – ghSMART A Method for Hiring™

Improve your team's hiring success rate from 50% to as high as 90% by implementing the ghSMART A Method for Hiring. Based on Topgrading®, which is the philosophy of filling every position in an organization with an "A Player," the A Method teaches managers how to use core tools such as building Scorecards and conducting the Topgrading Interview®.

Phase II – ghSMART A Method for Developing™

Cultivate "A Players" within your organization by using the ghSMART A Method for Developing. Managers will learn how to set expectations, provide meaningful feedback, and offer powerful coaching to strengthen teams.

Phase III – ghSMART A Method for Retaining™

Ensure your organization retains its top talent to execute key strategic priorities. Continuous success depends upon having all "A Players" who are aligned to organizational goals. Through the talent review, managers learn how to evaluate the bench strength of their teams, identify retention risks, and plan for succession.
