The new year brings new beginnings and is the perfect time to take a step back and set some career goals for the upcoming months. If you’ve already let your New Year’s Resolutions fall by the wayside (hey, we’ve all been there), or you just have no clue where to begin, there’s still time to start afresh and set realistic goals you’ll be able to ...

I have just experienced recruitment utopia. It came in the form of true partnership with an organisation as I placed a talented Chief Customer Officer into their executive leadership team.

At this level, finding the next executive to fill their shoes can seem like a tricky assignment and unwanted headache – especially knowing having the ...

We've all done it – started telling a story, only to realise too late we've gone on too long and our audience’s eyes are glazing over. No one wants to be that person, much less during a job interview. So, how much should you really be talking in an interview? When it comes to interview chatter, in a lot of cases, less is more.

As she returned to her desk with a cup of tea last week, Lisa Canning declared to anyone listening, “I spent most of my youth actively trying NOT to be like my mother.” She sighed. “But I can’t fight it anymore…I am EXACTLY like my mother.” She laughed.
