The Real Cost of a Bad Hire: Why your next hire costs more than the salary you agreed to.

​As companies grow, hiring decisions get heavier, riskier, and harder to reverse. The cost of a wrong hire isn't just salary. It shows up in slower decisions, teams that don't fit together, and lost momentum. Most CEOs don't notice the impact right away, but over time it quietly shapes how the business operates.

​In this 45-minute live session, Dan Cox, CEO of EXOS Advisors, and Brian Rutherford, who runs EXOS hiring work with clients, look at what a bad hire actually costs and why most leaders read a performance problem as a skill gap when it is a fit problem. The conversation follows how one hiring decision moves through leadership, team engagement, and execution, and why fixing performance after the fact rarely works.

​This is not a hiring tactics session. It is about how strong leaders think about hiring differently. You will leave clearer on what actually drives performance, why résumés and experience predict so little, and how matching people to the work changes the outcome.

​Built for CEOs and senior leaders who want better hiring decisions, less drag on their teams, and momentum they keep as the business grows.
