Here’s a concise list of 7 things that successful companies follow in securing and keeping great people.

1. Know exactly who you seek; that is, know the characteristics of your most successful employees
2. Design and reinforce your desired corporate culture
3. Know your story and how to tell it; only let those who can properly “evaluate” and “sell” interview potential candidates
4. Seek first for cultural fit, second for contribution, and third for qualifications and experience
5. Show that you care for the whole person; not only during the interview process, but also throughout the entire employment
6. Wage a campaign against toxic emotional energy
7. Inspire people with big dreams and lofty goals
