THE BUSINESS CASE

I belong to a group of job developers who meet monthly to network and to have various employers tell us what would solve all their HR problems. Somewhere in the last two months, I agreed to give a talk at the meeting to a larger bunch of employers. Apparently they want to me to tell them about the secret life of job developers: what we do, what we eat for breakfast, and why can’t we get real jobs for ourselves.

I thought that it I were an employer, I wouldn’t want to hear any of this. It would be dreadfully boring and would confirm their suspicion that we are only in business for networking opportunities. If I could read minds, I could hear the employers thinking, “What have I done to deserve a time wasting meeting like this? He’s not solving any of my problems and he’s not telling me why I should hire his clients.

Thanks employer. I’m glad you’ve given me the opportunity to consider the business case for hiring a job developer’s clients. See THE BUSINESS CASE https://www.mikebroderick.wordpress.com
