Every recruiter has encountered the extremely frustrating situation when all their recruiting efforts are flushed down the tubes when the hiring manager changes his or her mind, goes in a different direction or simply doesn’t like the candidates presented. We are talking about people here, and any time people are involved, it gets messy. However, […]
Don’t Ignore the Silent Majority
This isn’t a blog about politics but one about the voice of your customer, and they are being drowned out by the minority voices. My degree is in marketing and much of my corporate career was spent in marketing. As I watch knee-jerk reactions of major corporations, I am dumb founded. Truly, I do not […]

YOUR HEALTH I have been an advocate of selfcare long before it was popular. I was forced into it by having much of my health taken away from me at a young age. Like many things, I believe the pendulum as swung too far over now, and people are becoming selfish in the name […]

A Cautionary Tale about Communication
Although from the 90s, the lyrics of Angelic’s song are even more powerful today.
