General Manager (GM) Question:

When you are hiring someone to such a high post it is always better to hire an individual who has some experience in the field. If the candidate has previous experience then he or she is less likely to have problems coping or dealing with pressure. However if there is someone who has no experience in being a general manger before, yet has all the credentials, skills and qualifications required to become an excellent general manager then you should not shy away from taking the risk if you think that he would be able to do complete justice to the position. Being a part of the corporate world often requires you to take risks; sometimes these risks might not pay off, but remember often they do.
