1. It’s all about relationships

Wouldn’t it be wonderful if every time an employee resigned, a new position was created or you were having trouble filling a critical role, you had the names of several suitable candidates right at your fingertips?

Without good leadership, even the strongest company can flounder.
However, regardless of what stage you are in in your career, there is good news; this… Read more
The best companies attract the best people. It’s a concept as irrefutable as the laws of gravity.
Even in industries where employers typically have their pick of top talent, becoming an employer of choice has become increasingly important; more and more companies have come to understand that attracting and retaining top talent can give them the edge they need in today’s competitive business landscape.

If you have to train someone to work independently, the habit is not embedded and it can cause sustainability issues.
