HOW TO PUT THE RIGHT PERSON IN THE RIGHT CHAIR?


Does your Company have a problem in recruiting the right person for the
right chair? If yes, try this simple experiment.

Put around 100 bricks in some particular order in a closed room with an
open window. Then send 2-3 candidates into the room and close it from
outside. Leave them alone and come back after 6 hours, and then analyze
the situation:

If they are counting and recounting the number of bricks - PUT THEM IN
ACCOUNTS DEPT.
If they have messed up the whole place with the bricks - PUT THEM IN
ENGINEERING
If they are arranging the bricks in some other order - PUT THEM IN
PLANNING.
If they are throwing the bricks at each other - PUT THEM IN OPERATIONS.

If they are sleeping - PUT THEM IN SECURITY.

If they have broken the bricks into pieces - PUT THEM IN INFORMATION
TECHNOLOGY.

If they are staring out of the window - PUT THEM IN THE EXPORT
If they are sitting idle - PUT THEM IN HUMAN RESOURCE DEPT.
If they have thrown the bricks out of the window - PUT THEM IN THE
MATERIALS DEPT.

If they are clinging onto the bricks - PUT THEM IN TREASURY.
If they say they have tried different combinations, yet not a brick has
moved - PUT THEM IN SALES.
If they have already left for the day - PUT THEM IN MARKETING.

AND last but not least....

If they are talking to each other and not a brick has moved - PUT THEM IN
TOP MANAGEMENT
