I'm almost thinking that a young, high potential, but relatively inexperienced person who doesn't know what she doesn't know can be trained to do it right and outperform her more experienced peers within a year! Recruiters are reluctant to stop doing things that work well in the past, even though they're less effective now. Allen on new channels - there is a wholesale movement away from traditional sourcing channels with the idea that if everybody does the same thing the best you'll get is average results. So keep on pushing the change! Thanks Lou Re: the two comments –

As I travel to companies and advoacte change I hear a very interesting phenomenon I would not imagine exists at these companies. I hear "the recruiters will never go for that" or "I don't think we could sell it to the recruiters". The leaders I meet with seem to be on board with change and innovation but are under the impression that they have to have "consensus" in the ranks to implement. Wonder if you run into this in your consulting practice and how you overcome this barrier to innovation. Phil http://allianceqblog.qaaqblogs.com/ Lou,
