When I was growing up, I remember my grandmother having a particular eccentricity that we always teased her about. She had a room that we referred to as the “Toilet Paper Room” because that’s where she stored toilet paper. (Yes, a whole room.) She also had a massive stash of paper grocery bags. There were things like this that seemed silly to me to stockpile, because they were so readily available. To her, she had a fear of someday running out. I think many of us have seen this with…

Last week I watched a common example of one individual serving as the intellect and conscience for another. It happened at Publix, our local grocery store, where my 17-year-old son Benjamin decided to apply for a job.

In June of 2013, the Supreme Court of the United States (SCOTUS) struck down what many consider the heart of the 1965 Voting Rights Act outlawing voter discrimination. In delivering the majority opinion, Chief Justice John Robert suggested the conditions which existed nearly 60-years ago that made it necessary for this law, no longer existed in a…

Sourcing done with all the skills necessary and in a way that is most effective will rule out the redundancy of the task. As recruiters we have targets and deadlines to meet along with all the tasks we are involved in. With the limited time that we have, getting leads becomes difficult and time is of the essence.

On the way to the Veterinarian’s for an emergency run, we passed a church whose billboard stated “You can’t see the picture, if you are inside the frame.” The statement clearly applies to both our organizations and the dichotomy that exists in almost every workplace on the face of this globe we call earth.
Taiichi Ohno, the creator of the Toyota Production System, charged his managers with standing in a circle and observing the organization in real time. If we take Ohno’s charge in to…
