NEW HIRES: HOW TO FIND THEM, HOW TO KEEP THEM
How do you reduce turnover? One way is to eliminate much of the subjectivity of the selection process. Once an employer has attracted a pool of qualified candidates for a job opening, choosing the one candidate that best fits the job is often the result of subjective processes. Companies typically spend hours objectively analyzing the benefits of purchasing a new piece of equipment, but they often spend far less time interviewing candidates, the results of which are often based on subjective feelings as to which candidates seem to be the best.

Council on Foreign Relations Tracks 2008 Candidates on Africa Policy
One of my all time favorite publications, dealing with economics and international affairs, is the Council on Foreign Relations (CFR) . I have been reading this journal for almost a decade and view it almost in the way that I’d view an encyclopedia. So you can imagine my enthusiasm for them drawing attention towards U.S. Policy Toward Africa. In this instance what they have done is created a tool that can be used to summarize the views and records of each presidential candidate for the 2008 US elections. CFR has named this tool the Issue Tracker -The Candidates on U.S. Policy toward Africa.
Addressing Political Activism in the Workplace
With the 2008 Presidential Election swiftly approaching, learning how to treat political debate and actions in the office is the best way to prevent any future problems.

A New Approach to Applicant Attraction and Selection
Regardless of the stage of the economic cycle and the availability of candidates for jobs, employers need to make the best hiring decisions possible for the dollars they invest in attracting and screening job candidates.

Caught In the Act!
I have worked relentlessly to keep this Blog apolitical. For at least two reasons: (1) We are about enterprise management. (With a few VT farm pictures thrown in from time to time.) (2) When a Blog "turns political," then intemperate remarks become the norm—I have spent the better part of the last two months beating up people of every stripe over intemperate language used concerning our presidential candidates.

A Look Back at All That Happened in 2008
2008 was a very busy year. Astronology takes a look at the major happenings of 2008 and their implications on the human resource industry.
Five Strategies To Reduce Your Recruiting Costs
Economic concerns are causing many businesses to look at all operating costs and find ways to reduce expenses, including the cost of finding and hiring qualified candidates. If using a recruiter doesn't fit in your budget right now, and expensive advertising is yielding so many resumes from unemployed candidates who are desperate for work that you can't manage the inflow, here are five strategies you can implement immediately to reduce your recruiting expenses and find qualified candidates.
The Physics of Recruiting- Be A Magnet for Talent
If YOU (as the recruiter, HR, or hiring manager) are being the magnet, then you should be able to attract the "right" candidates and repulse the wrong candidates. Are you with me? So, as you go through your slate of candidates, you don't necessarily want the candidates you think are saying all the right things. Anyone can practice to do well in an interview. What you need to be looking for are those candidates who have the experience on paper AND who can bring something different to the organization.
Leadership Traits - Does Your Leader Have These Traits?
I've been a leadership counselor for years, but since the last presidential election I've come to realize that I've been doing it all wrong.

But given what I've learned since 2008, I've revised my list of the core traits that make a great (as far as you know) leader. Here are some of the biggies....
