Poor communication when looking for collaborators can cost organizations a lot, says an expert. One of the most frustrating problems faced in the job market is also one of the easiest to fix: lack of communication. The candidate sees a vacancy online, captures his CV, is contacted and everything seems to be going well.  They promise to call him the next day, but that doesn't happen.  He only listens to silence, then comes the doubts (what did I do wrong?) and the annoyance at the lack of follow-up.  Even if that person gets a call after a week or two, the chances of him being open or enthusiastic are slimmer.

Certainly that is reflected in high levels of turnover.  In fact, in private securi...

Small and midsize businesses are in a unique position to meet this challenge, in part because of their agility and resiliency—the ability to pivot quickly.  Even with a rise in variant strains of Covid, changing guidance from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, debate surrounding required vaccinations, and refusal by employees to continue working from home, smart leaders that remain committed to a solid plan and strategy...
