Nothing is tougher than leading in a downturn.

My previous two blogs were on the theme of ensuring your company is recession-proof. The first, ‘A recession is coming. And you will not survive’, told tales of recessions past, and how we rode them out when many others did not. Last week in ‘Recession. Are you vulnerable?’, I provided a checklist of warning signs, […]

A recession is coming. And you will not survive.

This is a horror story. Unlike most horror stories, this one is true in every single detail. I was 29 years old. With a team of intrepid colleagues, we founded Recruitment Solutions, and we were going to take on the world. We were ambitious. We opened with ten people on day one. We had two […]

Recruitment. The best it’s been for a decade!

I went to Dublin to talk ‘leadership’. And the craic was good!

I went to Ireland. A huge week of recording 20 hours of recruitment training for the Social Talent Training Platform (Look out for that.

3 wrong responses to recruitment change. And one smart one.
