With all due respect to Slouch, he created Recruitingblogs.com, not I. Dave Copps was still very kind in his mention of me in a recent Sourcecon email. More here: Props From Copps

After listening (or not listening to, as the case may be) to all the secrets about to be unveiled on RecruitingBlogs via the
Recruiting Animal Shhhhooooowwww, I couldn't help but wonder if RecruitingBlogs could add value with content from outside the recruiting industry.
Not simply sum-ups of what other people are writing about as we often see here, but rather first run content generated by less accessible guests with their thrust…

press release from the Conference Board, Americans are increasingly growing unhappy with their jobs.
More then 60% of people define themselves by their jobs and the contributions they make to them. When employees don’t feel valued in the workplace, it becomes a retention issue.

No, that's not a typo in my title, the ink I am referring to is getting ink, as in tattoos. These days, tattoos and piercings are being more and more common place - when I see then, they are just as normal to me as earrings or a guy with a beard. I was wondering over the weekend if I am alone in this fact, or if it is becoming more socially and corporately accepted to be tatted and pierced in the workplace.

So I had a close look at it and had some pleasant and promising surprises and some that where less promising.

"Start right now: as of this moment you're going to think of yourself differently! You're not an "employee" of General Motors, you're not a "staffer" at General Mills, you're not a "worker" at General Electric or a "human resource" at General Dynamics (ooops, it's gone!). Forget the Generals! You don't "belong to" any company for life, and your chief affiliation isn't to any particular "function." You're… Continue

leaders to have a clear understanding of what change management is in order to successfully implement it.

"Bridges are, with skyscrapers and dams and similar monumental
structures, the visible representation of our technical mastery over
the physical universe. In the past half century, software has emerged
as an invisible yet pervasive counterpart to such world-shaping human
