Why is a holistic, 360-degree view so important?

Most people try to solve their business problems by improving processes and technology. They believe that Processes + Technology = Staffing & Recruiting firm success.  Unfortunately, this formula misses a key ingredient: personal development of the people who create, select, and use the processes and technology. This is an example of solving problems with a limited view.

The correct formula is Processes + Technology + Personal Development = Staffing & Recruiting firm success.  Savvy leaders add the missing component of personal development to capture a sizeable competitive advantage. This is an example of solving problems with a holistic, 360-degree view.
