Mitch Gray has quite the resume; as a former pastor, speaker/life coach, entrepreneur and now, author, he combines all of his life lessons together to bring us the novel, “How to Hire and Keep Great People”. Gray describes how to hire the right people for the job, keep them engaged and willing to produce, how to keep your employees mentally and physically fit, and even how to fire them compassionately. For those who are in a leadership position, in ANY field, “How to Hire and Keep Great People” is a must-read.
With small chapters, and engaging and entertaining paragraphs, “Hire” is one of those novels that you can read through in one sitting, and then review various sections as they become appropriate. With his positive energy and respect for humanity and workers in all fields, Gray provides information that everyone should listen to. I fully respect Gray for including a focus on mental wellness of employees in one of his chapters, encouraging management and leaders to avoid stigmatizing mental illness, and instead to work WITH it, and provide support for those who need it.
As an employee, and not a person in a position of leadership, “Hire” still hit home for me in parts. Gray discusses why poor management can lead to staff burnout, high staff turnover, and negative staff attitudes, and he doesn’t stop there. Gray makes sure he answers his own questions, eliminating any of the “how” and “why” excuses that both management and employees tell themselves on a daily basis.
Entertaining and informative, especially for those in management or leadership positions, “How to Hire and Keep Great People” has the possibility to change the workforce for the better. Happy employees will lead to higher product output, more sales and better customer service, which benefits everyone in the long run. There is no reason not to read Gray’s “Hire”, and to share it with those around you!

I was delighted to get my hands on this book, and the fact that it goes beyond hiring to retention is an added bonus. I work for a big BIG company who has their own culture, but this book gave me solid ideas how I can build my team culture as well, a culture within a culture. This approach will help me build a team of the right caliber and I will retain people who are the best fit.
I was left with a list of tactical things I need to do better (a reminder to not let my negativity bleed into the work place for example) as well as a sense of satisfaction for the things I'm already doing right to retain top talent.
This is a great practical guide to hiring and retaining top talent.

Did you know that 46% of HR leaders say employee burnout is responsible for up to 50% of their annual turnover? Neither did I!

How to Hire and Keep Great People explores the steps necessary for finding great people, designing great culture, and building your dream team. Gray (@mgraymedia) defines a specific 3-part framework for us to separate designing the culture, finding the people, and building the team. This framework will ultimately serve us in cultivating a healthy and prosperous work culture.
—
Overall, the concepts developed and discussed throughout this book are empowering, thought-provoking, and impactful. The framework brought forth by Gray is nothing particularly profound, but it is deeply rooted in spirituality - given the background of Gray - and highlights the distinction between religion/spirituality, and the inevitability of a relationship between culture and spiritual elements.
—
It is a quick and easy read, broken into small, paragraphs throughout - more of a guidebook, as it’s intended to be. All that to say, you can easily pull the most impactful messages and keep them in your back pocket for future referencing. There were several quotes throughout that really captivated me. One being, “To continue growing you must do the work within to create new strate- gies outside of yourself. You need a community of like-minded people ready to accomplish great things and help you achieve what you have set out to do. This is spiritual work. It is emotional work.”
—
I’d strongly encourage anyone to pick this up who have struggled with the culture of their work environment. I, for one, will be getting copies for my managers/HR team in the hopes it promotes a fresh perspective on their hiring strategies and retention methods. Because, as Gray notes, When you take part in responding to these questions and consider the reflection you are living, it changes how you approach life. You be- come much more aware of your actions, words, and thoughts. “You become more aware of how everything is connected. You become more engaged with yourself and with others.
We call this way of living mindfulness.” ✨

Your Approach to Hiring Is All Wrong!!!
Making a new hire can transform your business. Whether you’re hiring your first employee or adding a new member to your existing team, Unhiring on the other hand is the hardest part of the hiring process. It takes a lot of time and money to bring people in for an interview. But hiring the wrong person is much less expensive than bringing in the right person for the wrong job. So why aren't companies investing more time and money to make better hires?
The answer is that they don't want to invest time and money in the hiring process because they haven't figured out what that process should be.
More than 50% of organizations globally have difficulty retaining their employees.
The cost to replace a highly trained employee can cost upwards of 200% of their annual salary! Read that again - 200%!
Rather than using resources to invest in someone who can do a job well, you end up spending resources on recruiting, hiring, training, on- boarding, enrolling in more benefits packages, and developing new people when hiring the right people from the beginning and investing in their success would end the cycle of turnover madness.
In 'How to Hire and Keep Great People', Mitch Gray teaches you how to lay the foundation of culture in your organization that will empower your team and ignite growth. 'How to Hire and Keep Great People' is your new guidebook for: - Designing great culture - Finding great people - Building an all-star team - Understanding the real reason people work Your #1 priority as a leader is to empower your people. When people feel empowered, they feel motivated. When they feel motivated, they become inspired. When they become inspired, they perform at incredibly high levels.
You must be clear on who you want partnering with you in building success. Your focus must be on intangibles rather than tangibles. Your goal is to learn the art of hiring based on the presence of a person rather than the skills of a person.
Remember, a skill can be taught. Attitude and aptitude cannot.

When I came across the book my first impression was WOW. Does this kind of book really exists in the real time world? Honestly this book cleared out any doubt that was just germinating in my mind. This book is so practical and so down to earth that one can place this book on his work table as a manual for his company.
Here Author Mitch Gray tried to keep it simple and easy to read. Placing every detail into separate block and by keeping it short makes he made it an impactful read and easy to remember one. He starts this book by praising two of his closed persons named Terry and Jackie Manz and dedicated the book to them, by putting them at the top of his transformation on Leadership, People and Workplace.
Hiring Great people is an art and to keep them working for you is the skill. Sharing the trick from company culture and how it plays an important role in workplace, how to find those great minds, the art of firing and how firing employee really matters, all those minute parts make it a great collection among the business books.
After reading every part and exploring every detail of the book one thing I can remember that it's hard to find great peoples and if you got them it's hard to handle them. And if you got successful in that they will make you the person you want to be.Your company to be.
In the end I can say it's the WOW reading for them who wants to apply it in their business life.In their dream career to making it visible to the world.
Takeaways:-
1.Believing you can't find good people is like saying you can't grow your business.
2.Culture has the single greatest impact on your bottom line.
3.People are the lifeblood of any business.
4.The most powerful element of an organization the element most leaders often ignore: Culture.
5.Spiritually healthy employees are the greatest asset and partners an organization can have. They are positive, solution-seeking, and unifying people.

How to Hire and Keep Great People is a simple yet thorough guide to effective company culture. Author Mitch Gray humanizes leadership (as it should be) with his empathetic perspective as a former pastor, manager and entrepreneur.
One of my favourite chapters gives us a glimpse at where Mitch's perspective comes from. He recalls getting fired from his dream position as a pastor in a church, and not being given an explanation. The experience was devastating, and it taught Mitch not only the importance of compassion when firing (a great lesson in this book), but also a crucial piece of wisdom in hiring: That how you FIRE is a symptom of how well you understand how to HIRE.
The two problems that leaders want to solve with their people, firing employees and employees quitting, are addressed at the root—learning the real reason people work in the first place.
Mitch's dive into the purpose, trust, appreciation and mentorship that employees crave is fundamental and indispensable. And we can all attest to working under management who do NOT make these values an important focus for their employees.
Other chapters that were highlights for me include explanations of great company culture, and a practical tool called the "Culture Design Playbook."
There's a diversity in Mitch's approach that ranges from establishing a spiritual connection with our work, to hands-on advice for finding people in way more ways than you thought you could, onboarding new employees into the culture, and even firing with compassion when it must be done (and more).
Managers, leaders struggling with retention, or entrepreneurs who want to scale their company, should all find wisdom in this book that will be well-worth the purchase price.

Why do people work for an organization?
• Purpose
• Leadership they can trust
• Appreciation
• Mentorship
People don’t just work for money; they work because of the culture of the company.
A higher salary may lure an employee into the job but long-term employees are lured by the culture within an organization. People want to feel important, appreciated, and grow.
Drive to increase in the profession is a major factor a person likes to associate with any organization and to hire great people, an organization needs to provide its employees the opportunity to flourish.
“How to Hire and Keep Great People” by Mitch Gray is a book for leaders and organizations for building their dream team for success. It is a go-to guide for finding great people, creating a thriving culture, and gathering a dream team.
Book reflects on factors that cause a company or organization to lose its great employees and how to provide them an environment they never want to leave. Mitch Gray has outlined the key points in the book that hurts a company’s chances of keeping their best people.
There was a key highlight that I really liked. Having worked in a job myself, I understand the value of appreciation the seniors show to juniors. A nice word of appreciation goes a long way to motivate the workers.
The book also focuses on aspects that create a better interpersonal relationship with employees. Having a good relationship with people maintains a healthy culture within the workplace and leaders and management should always focus on evolving the best practices for the same.
This book would be valuable for anyone in the management and leadership position in an organization or who looks for a team of motivated people.

REVIEW: How to Hire and Keep Great People by Mitch Gray
This is the book that will help you create a star team from the beginning at your company.
This book is about people. About you, as a leader. About the people who may go to work for you each day. This is really a book about the business of people.
You often hear leaders do their best to separate their business from their lives. This, however, turns out to be fallacious. Everything is connected, everything matters, so people who work for your matter, and can benefit from working with you.
Mitch starts with elevating a concept that most leaders have forgotten: Culture Matters.
If you want people to work at their best, you should give them reasons to do so.
Why is this book what you need?
It will guide you to develop an internal environment of growth.
It will teach you how to create a solid culture around your company.
It will provide you with ways of recruiting the best employees that align with your vision.
It will teach you to listen to your people carefully and compassionately, realizing that they matter and that your presence can only thus enhance their lives.
It will give you strategies to create a system of accountability and clarity.
A great leader embraces the fullness of humanity.
Great leaders are compassionate, sincere, interested, and engaged. Personal issues don’t scare great leaders. Human challenges don’t place fear in the hearts of great leaders.
If you lead a team of any size- from 1 to 1,000- How to Hire and Keep Great People is for you.

If I had to use only two words to summarise this book, it would be: 𝗖𝘂𝗹𝘁𝘂𝗿𝗲 𝗠𝗮𝘁𝘁𝗲𝗿𝘀.
That is actually what @mgraymedia said at the beginning of his book, "𝗛𝗼𝘄 𝘁𝗼 𝗛𝗶𝗿𝗲 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗞𝗲𝗲𝗽 𝗚𝗿𝗲𝗮𝘁 𝗣𝗲𝗼𝗽𝗹𝗲" 📚
He said that most people, employers, leaders and organisations tend to ignore the most powerful element that could make or break an organisation, which is, well you guessed it, 𝗖𝘂𝗹𝘁𝘂𝗿𝗲 🏔
At the start of his book, Mitch Gray talks about 𝗪𝗛𝗬 he decided to write this book in the first place. Furthermore he talks a bit about his background, about him serving as a pastor and eventually going into the business world with similar mission which is spreading goodness in this world by loving and serving others 😄
Ultimately, he shared that this book is about people. Throughout the book he talks about why culture matters in an organisation as well as virtuous leadership qualities and the need to find clarity among many others. This is how you can find and hire great people, the right ones 🤝
What I found truly helpful about this book is that at the end of each chapter, the reader is given a time to reflect on what they've learnt, and to actually apply principles from those chapters to their own lives, whether as a hiring manager, as a leader or even as a person. That, if applied properly by readers, is a definite game-changer for them 📚🏆
If you're looking to hire the right people, then this book is definitely for you. I can't recommend this one enough! 👍

If you are thinking of opening a business or currently run your own business please read this. It is filled with reminders of compassion, what it is like to have culture with a business, the importance of clarifying all things in the work place, and how important management and the way management handles/ interacts with people, is to running a good company.
I found myself reading this and thinking this is some common sense basic stuff, but I as someone who worked retail for over 15 years definitely recognize how many, many, bosses and business owners forget these simple things. There are a few people from my past I would love to give this book to.
There was also some insight pointed out in the book on deeper meanings of what to think about with employees and how to step back and understand what might be miss understood. The book covers a large range of information on being a good boss, having a good company, and how to hire correctly and keep people, in a clear and easy to understand fashion.
Quick easy read. Though honestly some parts in the book can come across as absolute, as if the author has no room to be incorrect and that had me stand offish with the book. I highly enjoy when people are confident within themselves and encourage that, but when speaking about others there should be room for movement. This book is more of a coaching book and at end of chapters has questions to help promote growth.

• "How to hire and keep Great People" the title of the book itself describes it more than enough literally giving a clear idea about what the book is about.
• The book focuses upon how can one run an organisation, lead it in a better way by building a strong team and leading the people by empowering them in their workplace.
• The book focuses upon the factors that causes a company to loose it's valuable employees. It explains how does a workplace environment and work culture impacts on an employee.
• It showcases aspects like how to create better interpersonal relationships and maintain a healthy relation with employees with a really healthy work culture.
• I personally loved the concept, how wonderfully author stated that people just don't work for money, there are a lot more reasons than just monetary benefits that actually impacts the employee- their purpose, mentorship and appreciation they receive, the kind for leadership they are guided in matters along with money.
• I realised even if you are paid a really handsome amount, but no proper work culture or place for one to grow, it won't take a second thought for a person to leave the job. Obviously, who loves to work stressfully with no willingness to work?
• The book explains how hiring great people is an art and keeping them at your workplace is even a great skill.

In How to Hire and Keep Great People Mitch Gray lays out his thoughts and experiences on leadership and spells out the basic principles required for a people-centered culture.
I will admit, when I saw the author describe himself as a “former pastor, life coach, entrepreneur, community developer, and creator” I was skeptical about what I would within its pages. But I was pleasantly surprised and found my skepticism melting away the more I read. Gray wastes no time in laying out the premise of his leadership philosophy: no matter what business you are in, you are in the business of people. People are the life blood of any organization so you better make sure you are surrounding yourself with great people.
Throughout the book I found myself prompted to reflect on the organization I currently am a part of and the organizations I have been a part of in the past. Is this book going to deliver any ground-breaking insights and change your worldview? No. Is it worth a read for anyone in HR or a leadership position? Yes. At the very least it will hold up a mirror for you to honestly reflect on the things you do well and the areas you could improve.
Pros: creates moments for reflecting on your own business’s principles and practices, quick and easy read
Cons: surface level throughout, does not go into much depth on any topic

It doesn't make sense to hire smart people and tell them what to do; we hire smart people so they can tell us what to do. This quote is said by the Founder of Apple, Steve Jobs. It betokens that hiring is a vital process in deciding company's future.
This book by Mitch Gray is absolute gold. In this book, he emphasizes the importance of hiring and firing the right people. Whom to hire defines the How to hire. What is more important than hiring smart talent is retaining smart talent. I come from an industry where the attrition rate is eight months, the Software Engineering industry. Not all employees feel the same about the company they work for. Employee's perspective can vary from treating the company as your own baby to looking at the company as a money-printing machine.
This book emphasizes the importance of the hiring process rather than just telling how and whom to hire. Being a speaker and a host, Mitch Gray knows how to keep the reader engaged, which gets reflected in his writing.
I recommend all the founders and the wanna-be entrepreneurs to read this book. This book is surely going into my re-read list.

As someone who worked as a recruiter back in the 1990s during one of the heaviest tech recruiting periods we have seen in 50 years, it wasn’t enough just to search Monster.com or try and snag grads coming out of computer science programs. To really recruit, you had to develop a network and you had to develop a mindset of “always-on” recruiting. Everywhere you went, you were on the lookout for your next hire. Business cards flowed like water. The heart of the discussion, though, was always: what does this person really want? Do they want to change jobs just to get a little more money? Are they looking to telecommute? What are their working conditions? What culture do they hope to be a part of? Mitch Gray addresses a lot of these questions and more in his book in a way that’s very easy to understand. Further, he’s got a mixed background of non-profit and for-profit work that helps to underscore the messages in his book. There are strategies in here that are truly timeless and they are important for hiring managers, corporate recruiters, agency recruiters, HR personnel and anyone with a hand in the hiring process.

This book opens a door to such questions and answers it. The most important of it all is not only how to hire great people but also how to keep them. There are different aspects of it that are discussed in detail in the book. One of the fundamental aspects is giving people the purpose to stay and grow in your company and lead with heart.

If you are an entrepreneur or managing people, this is the first book you should read so that you can understand how important culture and genuine caring about employees are. This book gets straight to the point and is easy to read and understand.
I work in HR, so I already know a lot about hiring and keeping great employees. I'm confident to say that the strategy explained in this book can have a great impact on the intrinsic motivation of your employees.
This book will help every leader to empower, motivate, and inspire their team so that every member feels valued and understands the impact of their work on society.
Then, your team will be more fulfilled in what they do. According to Mitch Gray, this is the key to keep your people. They need to feel intrinsically motivated in what they do every day. If they don't, or if the organizational culture isn't supportive or respectful enough, they will quit no matter what goodies you may offer (like free coffee or access to the gym).

I really am glad this kind of books exist nowadays, compiling years of experience dealing with people in a simple & practical way in 205 pages. it serves as a reliable "mentor" to navigating the hierarchical & life as a leader of whatever organisation, profitable or not, big or small, leader or manager ...
it explores the importance of a well defined culture based on the people working there, inspired from them, with their perspectives taken in consideration.
It showed how every step of the process from hiring (from checking the applications to interviews) to keeping, like why people stay in that company and lets agree here its not about the money I got that drilled in my mind now. even firing had its part in the book!
I wish there were more personal stories from the author though it sticks

In a society that seems to give weight only to numbers, to easily quantifiable results, it is nice to read a book that talks about humanity, emphasizing its value!
Mitch Gray explains how to create a successful business, but he does it starting from what are the primary elements that constitute it: people!
We often hear that there are no individuals of value, but it is not true, the difficulty is to select them and above all make them stay!
In fact, as the author says, people take a job for the money, but they stay if they have a purpose and we, as leaders, must provide them with one!
Having a strong corporate culture means just that: knowing how to value people, empower them, make them feel an integral part of the process of building our vision.
