Other People's Problems is a great guide for the first time small business owner. It will assist those first time managers to avoid the drain on their success by recognizing problems before they impact productivity. Sawyer also stresses the importance of a useful policy and procedures manual.
Having hired their first employees, it's common for small business owners to believe their productivity problems are now solved. In fact, as explained in Other People's Problems, a whole new set of problems that must be addressed may just be starting. That's the price the entrepreneur automatically pays for job creation. There are always risks with new hires. This book explains in detail what they are [based on real life, not theoretical experiences] and what you can and need to be doing about them before, during and after the hiring interview to protect the future of your business and your sanity. The earlier you can identify a problem employee and eliminate related issues, the better your business will run and the more profitable it will be. Having read this book, your path to success is unlikely to be derailed by other people's problems, hence the title of the book and the importance of its message: why you need to continue interviewing employees after you've hired them.
