Selection mistakes

Adrian Furnham

A chapter in Management and Myths, 2004, pp 123-125 from Palgrave Macmillan

Abstract: Abstract Selecting people is a serious business. Despite the efforts of both trainers and therapists adults are pretty hard to change. The package of abilities, attitudes and traits found in a person in their mid-twenties will probably quite happily (or alas unhappily) see them through to the grave.
