Who's Responsible for Hiring Success?

This published work explores a practical product-business question through the lens of Product Development & Execution.

This published letter asks who should ultimately own the success of a hiring decision and argues that accountability cannot be outsourced to recruiting or HR. The idea remains relevant to product-business performance because leaders who own results must also own the quality and fit of the teams expected to produce them. Present this as a published letter to the editor, not as a commissioned article.
