Time to Replace Wage-Slaves with Employee Owners

By Kevin Zeese

"President Bush likes to talk about an 'ownership society.' There are many steps that can be taken to create an ownership society, one critical step is to continue to expand employee-owned businesses. The Zeese for Senate Campaign presented a 'Ways that Work' Award to the Maryland Brush Company on March 21 as part of our Solutions Tour of Maryland. The award was presented to the board and 27 employee-owners of the Maryland Brush Company in order to highlight the importance of supporting employee-ownership of corporations.

The Maryland Brush Company is 100% employee owned and the employees play a major role in selecting the Board of Trustees for the company. The company was founded in 1851 as Paint and Maintenance Brushes Company and became an employee owned business in 1990 and changed its name to the Maryland Brush Company. Maryland Brush is a premier manufacturer and supplier of engineered and standard brush products to all manufacturing sectors of industry. Their focus is the design, development, manufacture and distribution of power brushes, maintenance brushes and paint applicators. They have had 150% stock increase over the past two years showing, as research has shows, that employee ownership is not only good for employees but good for business."

Making Lemonade

Sarbanes Oxley as an Opportunity for Business Process Optimization and Supply Chain Excellence

By Anthony Tarantino

"As the old adage goes, when life serves you lemons, make lemonade. In 2003, the impact of the Sarbanes Oxley Act (SOX) on finance and information technology was widely discussed as concerned professionals tried to understand the impact on their business operations. In 2004, supply chain professionals have come to understand that SOX will profoundly change their lives as well. However, the thought leaders in supply management are using this regulation to take an opportunistic view and see SOX as a means to facilitate business process optiminization and achieve supply management excellence. The laggards will take a more passive and reactive angle, viewing SOX as a passing fad or another example of government interference with no tangible benefits."

An 'eye on the prize' helps to clear hurdles

By Wallace Johnston

"I recently meet a young man. He is now 26, and at age 23 he climbed Mount Everest.

His motivation was to de termine if he could accomplish the feat using his own capacities rather than conventional strategies. He wanted to create his own challenge.

He accomplished his goal. He experienced the mountain and culture surrounding it, all by making his decisions based on his goal rather than what others had done in the past."

Gloomy European bosses more likely to shed staff

By Bill Magee

"Scots bosses and their UK and European counterparts are more likely to lay off staff in the next six months than those based elsewhere, according to a newly published global "confidence index" of business executives by management consultant McKinsey.

In contrast, the report reveals that executives based outside Europe, especially those in smaller firms, plan to hire new employees, despite expecting economic conditions to falter slightly between now and the end of the year.

McKinsey puts the European lack of business confidence down to ongoing political battles over workers' rights and social taxation, that "likely stem from the same underlying economic shifts" causing many Euro executives to reduce the size of their workforce."

Key Topics of Discussion
LEAD MANAGEMENT
Leads are suspects or people who have been identified as being part of your company's industry. These people need to be qualified to make sure they are someone you want to have a relationship with.


CONTACT RELATIONSHIPS
Contacts are individuals who are associated with your competitors or Acounts as I call them. Or people you have inditied for potential employment.


ACCCOUNT MANAGEMENT & COMPETITIVE INTELLIGENCE
Accounts are companies. They can be business partners, vendors or one of two types of competitors. Either a Direct Competitor which is a company that is in the same business you are and sells products “against” you, or an Indirect Competitor which is a company that is not in your business but does employ people similar to whom you employ.


OPPORTUNITIES
Opportunities are what you qualify Leads and Contacts against. Your open opportunities constitute your predictable talent pipeline and opportunities also serve as the foundation of your talent management forecast .


STRATEGIC PLANNING
Strategic Planning is used by both your talent acquisition team and your hiring managers…together. Together you create and manage plans and the associated strategies and execution tactics for these plans.

The planning process will most likely be performed for each quarter and be used only for strategic planning where a company makes the decision to proactively target either a highly desired skill set or to “staff up” for a large, high profile project. Strategic Plans are tied to specific departments or divisions and contain the overall objectives for the strategy such as targets, goals, strengths, and challenges.


STRATEGIES
For each Strategic Plan there is a set of strategies that define how the talent acquisition team will meet the hire targets by using a combination of sourcing, interviewing, recruiting, and presenting qualified applicants to Hiring Managers. Multiple strategies for each Strategic Plan allow a company to implement best practices and effective planning processes which includes plan activity management via collaboration of the talent acquisition team and their goals.


CAMPAIGNS
Campaigns are specific marketing activities that you manage to drive leads, build a brand, or stimulate interest in your company.


REPORTING
Reports are data analyses for you and your organization. You can create a variety of best practices reports, and you can build custom reports on the fly to better measure your team's activities, failures and successes.


DASHBOARDS
Dashboards are graphs, charts, and tables based on your custom reports. You can use dashboards to visually measure and analyze key elements of your talent acquisition efforts.


HOME PAGE
Your home page that displays your Outlook synched calendar and task list, along with a customized Dashboard view. You can also disply a list of "hot" links, RSS news feeds, and more web based customization at an individual user's level.


DOCUMENT STORAGE
These are documents that you use as part of your sourcing and recruiting processes.
Recruiting Links
CRM Links
