Finding and hiring the right people for your staff can make or break your church. So for good reason, most staffing attention is paid to the question of "Who?"
But over the years, I've learned that there's another, equally-important question that often gets overlooked (to the detriment of your church and the Kingdom) - that's the question of...
HOW?
Specifically, HOW do we handle the hiring process in such a way that it honors God and sets up this new staff member for success in their new role?
TODAY I'd like to give you a FREE Download of The Journey's "New Hire Checklist" to help you answer that vital question.
This is a simple, one-page document we have developed at The Journey to use for each new hire we bring on - and while it is simple, it's also tremendously powerful.
Clarity is the holy grail of staffing, and this document clearly defines each step of the hiring process - so there's no confusion.
In fact, this document is the "page" described in "we're all on the same page" :-)
