Ted’s Blog: Discussing critical industry issues
Jan 17, 2012
Category: People
Jim Clifton, Chairman of Gallup, wrote an interesting book entitled The Coming Jobs War. This is a book that everyone should read. It explains why creating good quality jobs are at the heart of our nation’s economy and our individual economic security.

While the recession has masked that issue in the short-term, attracting people to the industry is really about creating quality jobs. Of course, some companies do a better job than others in creating desirable jobs. But if your company is struggling with finding enough good people, you should look at the quality of the jobs your company provides.
