Industry Update: Information Technology

October 1, 2023
Chairman's Blog, Industry Updates

Introduction Before we look at this industry in detail let us first rise to the 30,000-foot altitude and look at the landscape for a moment. Many sources offer such perspectives but one interesting source took the abstraction to an unusual level. They focused mainly on emotional motivation. Paraphrasing...

Warning: Autumn Avalanche in the Executive Market

September 24, 2023
Chairman's Blog

It’s true. Call it a tsunami, a surge, or an avalanche, but when human resources and hiring managers come back from their summer holidays (in the northern hemisphere) they usually publish a slew of want ads, engage search firms, and otherwise seek to catch up on hiring candidates for all of those...

Dangers of the Do-It-Yourself Market

September 17, 2023
Chairman's Blog

You could, of course, not invest in your career. You could join the thousands of job seekers applying to online ads or bombarding disinterested recruiters with irrelevant resumes. This approach guarantees maximum competition and minimum compensation because it creates a “buyers’ market” where the...

Marketable or Makeover (Part Three): Perceiving the Invisible Market for Executives

September 3, 2023
Chairman's Blog

Imagine you and two friends stumble across a huge shape in the dark. One of you reaches out and feels big floppy leaves like an enormous tree. Another feels a sturdy tree trunk, wrinkled, and strong. And the third feels a tiny stalk with a fly whisk on the end. Later when you discuss your impressions,...

Chairman's Blog, Industry Updates

Introduction: We bundle Leisure, Tourism, Travel, Hospitality, and Food into one macro-category. There is significant overlap and transfer of executives between these related activities.

Marketable or Makeover (Part Two): Perfecting Your Packaging

August 19, 2023
Chairman's Blog

Perfecting Your Packaging – Once upon a time, a resume may well have served its purpose as a chronological recounting of a candidate’s titles. It listed responsibilities, employers, and dates of employment, but that is not a helpful strategy anymore. In fact, it might be helpful to think of...

Marketable or Makeover (Part One): Square Peg / Round Hole

August 13, 2023
Chairman's Blog

Square Peg / Round Hole – Hundreds of executives come to us for help each month. Most cannot honestly or accurately answer this marketability question often because they lack perspective. The majority of people change jobs infrequently. We can fill this gap because we help executives obtain...

Give Yourself a Promotion

August 6, 2023
Chairman's Blog

Give yourself a promotion. Guidance from a parent, a relative, a coach, a teacher, or perhaps a spiritual leader typically gives us direction early in life. Often we grow to expect this input from others and we utilize it to define our futures. With luck, we have positive role models and helpful input,...

INDUSTRY UPDATE: Marketing & Advertising

July 30, 2023
Chairman's Blog, Industry Updates

Introduction Advertising and marketing used to be so simple. Broadcast, print, point of sale… the options were limited and there were relatively few outlets.
