It is better
to not be on
the web than
to be on and
not know why
John Sumser

Reality
is more
complex
than
it seems.
John Gall

It's better to
do a few things
really well than
than to do
a lot of things
badly.
If you can't
make the necessary
commitments of
time and energy
to your
electronic
marketing
efforts
scale back
your plan.

"Sure," chimed the other fellow, "If I could print visas, I'd be a billionaire. We're turning away great projects because we can't get the people to work on them. If I hire a non-documented worker, my business will be shut down. Yet, I see all of the folks, ready to work, lining the barrio as I drive to work. It doesn't make sense to me."

• Already, more than one employee leaves the workforce for each new player. We're growing towards the 2 for one future.
• Plan to see the re-emergence of dot com mania as online retailing forges ahead. It won't be because it's cheaper, faster or better service. It will be because it requires fewer people to execute.
• Expect even greater workplace flexibility. Every worker, cream of the crop or not, will be valuable and worth designing the infrastructure around.
• Lines will get longer. Invest in technology that is targeted towards making time spent in line productive.
• As the value of each employee increases, the economics really begin to work for "personal representation."
• The government is gearing up to lose 40% of its employees (a figure considered modest by some in the government) over the next five years. The question in this case rapidly becomes "Will working in a place with no work changes but 40% fewer employees actually accelerate the rate of departure?"
• The skills gap is growing. As underskilled employees increase in value based solely on demographics, the economic incentives to build technical skills actually decline. Even in this climate, over 500,000 IT jobs remain unfilled.
• New online labor force management operations will continue to blossom while the baseline firms up. Monster's recent (brilliant) moves with the labor department raise the possibility that the government may compete directly with our industry. The recent Employment Summit Job Fair had over 125 companies in residence.
