As I review open jobs in this tough economy, they seem to be more specialized and require narrower experience and education, making identifying and hiring qualified talent even more difficult. As part of a Talent Acquisition team, Human resource Department or Staffing Firm, we recruiters need to start doing a better job of leveraging our hiring managers’ networks and contacts as well as our own.

Even when I left Corporate America, I didn’t leave. For at least a few years I think I was still caught in the corporate culture trance as I contracted in semi-permanent positions. It was lucrative and fun, but I didn’t really experience the freedom of the outside until later. Freedom can be scary, but to me, now, it’s not nearly as scary as the idea of going back.

'The way feedback is handled is vital to the way the messages are received by employees. It never ceases to amaze just how careless some managers can be in how they provide verbal and written feedback. During feedback about performance, employees have a heightened sense of sensitivity about what they are being told and with the normal "noise" that occurs in interpersonal communication, the stage is set for misunderstanding and hard feelings to develop.

I've worked with people who have a chronic illness, and I even have one myself -- migraine headaches. The thing about chronic illness is that you never know when you're going to have a bad day. If that were the case, it would be much easier to plan around. You could say to yourself: "Oops.looks like Oct. 21 a migraine is going to hit like a sledgehammer.

As I do more work with positive professional development and the idea of working from a place of opportunities, gratitude and learning, I've been doing some thinking about the roles that different people have played in my life. From a purely practical point of view, being aware of who has contributed to my professional growth is a way for me to tend to my network--thanking and doing things for the people who have made contributions to my development.

'You have to wonder how managers who believe they can operate in a vacuum and treat their employees like second class citizens survive as long as they do in most organizations. Unfortunately there are a lot of managers who fit this description at least to some degree. Employees who have a solid working relationship with their managers are usually much more engaged, have higher levels of overall job and cultural satisfaction, and meet or exceed goals consistently.

'Employees sometimes feel that as much as the employer or manager talks about empowering employees to autonomously make decisions and control their work, there just isn''t a framework or environment available to them to allow it to happen.

When I begin my day with an hour spent on a high-impact project, though, things tend to flow more smoothly. I accomplish more and feel that sense of "flow" more frequently.
