How do you cope with unexpected personnel shor¬tages? Many businesses are facing this question whether the cause is seasonal peaking, inventory tak¬ing, special projects, several employees on sick leave at the same time, or an unexpected increase in business.
Many companies are finding a convenient and economical solution to such problems in the services of temp staffing agencies. This guide explains these services, points out some of their advantages and outlines some steps that can be taken to ensure getting the best possible results from using them.
My name is Meir Liraz and I'm the author of this book. According to Dun & Bradstreet, 90% of all business failures analyzed can be traced to poor management. This is backed up by my own experience. In my 31 years as a business coach and consultant to businesses, I've seen practically dozens of business owners fail and go under -- not because they weren't talented or smart enough -- but because they were trying to re-invent the wheel rather than rely on proven, tested methods that work. And that is where this book can help, it will teach you how to avoid the common traps and mistakes and do everything right the first time.
