I’ve just taken a deep read into LinkedIn’s Global Recruiting Trends 2017 research report. LinkedIn surveyed more than 4,000 talent leaders from around the world to uncover their challenges, thoughts and future plans.

The days of a career trajectory being described as “climbing the ladder” are gone. Instead, employees are now on a career path.

Keeping up is not easy and it’s very time consuming.

Managing a team is both challenging and rewarding. One of the lest favorite things about it, however, is performance management.

Venture Capitalism. Vulture Capitalism. When I hear those words, I immediately envision business owners whose top priorities are their investors exit plans, and subsequently are serving their investors rather than their customers. I’ve been a business owner long enough to see the effects of vulture capitalism within my industry. The landscape is littered with our competitors’ corpses and lingering bad business practices.

One of the leadership traits I find most impressive is the ability to adapt and change. In politics you are vilified if you ever change your mind. It’s as if you’ve committed blasphemy!

Discretionary effort can make the difference between a great team, and an extraordinary team -- but what does it take to inspire and support that effort? It's not easy, but it's not highly complicated either. A large part of both the challenge and the opportunity lies in the design of your working environment. Although the physical environment your team works in is important, perhaps the more important and impactful environmental factor is how their work (and their workplace) makes them feel.
