Room 4 Improvement 11 (April 10, 2006) The Labor and Skills Shortages Some facts
Local hero, Dub Dubs weighs in strongly with the proto-capitalist admonishment that we can easily find talent elsewhere. Taking a similar stance, pooh poohing the shortage is Fast Company. SHRM offers an unusually thoughtful perspective arguing that changes are on the horizon, driven by demographics but currently hard to quantify (surprisingly like an HR outlet, no?). Job boards can only reflect the bodies and skills that are available in the market place. The question that will be hardest to figure out is whether the audiences they serve are representative of the overall market.
