The Clock and the Compass by Jon Bartos
Mark my words, 2013 will be a banner year for many in the Executive Search and Staffing industry. Yes, there are rumors that the first quarter could be slower than expected, much like the fourth quarter of 2012. So why am I so bullish on 2013?
Opportunity! There are plenty of job openings. Career Builder published some very interesting statistics about 2013; 26% of hiring managers plan to add full time workers, 60% of companies are in better financial shape than last year, and the real kicker - 38% of the companies cannot find the talent needed to fill the critical positions they have. That’s almost 4 out of 10 companies who seriously need our help!
The reason why the search industry slowed in 2012 is exactly the reason why many will prosper. Those who capitalize on the opportunity by using the right technologies, techniques and effort – will not have a problem finding the talent and will be extremely successful.
The secret to success in anything is actually quite simple. First and foremost, it is knowing what to do; then, it is about wanting, willing and able to do it. The key being: the “willing to do” part of the equation. Most failures in life happen not because one doesn’t know what to do, it’s because we just plain don’t do it. Period.
Bob Buford said “Success means using your knowledge and experience to satisfy yourself. Significance means using your knowledge and experience to change the lives of others.”
Thus the reason for this blog; my goal through the “The Clock and the Compass” is to help you achieve success in any market environment. More importantly however, I want to allow you to attain that success as fast as possible; allowing you to achieve “significance” and really make a difference. This blog is directed to the few who are “WILLING TO DO” whatever is needed – to achieve true success.
I encourage you to think about the significance you would like to have in this world. By having a solid idea of what you would like to accomplish gives you a broader perspective and a bigger reason “WHY” you need to get there. Thanks for joining me, I look forward to doing everything I can to help you on your journey from recruiting success to significance.
