A Word From Ann

World Cup fever is upon us, and despite the excitement in the air a lot of us are

reminiscing on the previous world cup 4 years ago in South Africa, as well as the

past 6 months of 2014, which have flown by - We are looking at what we have

accomplished, what we still want to do for the remainder of the year, and what our

expectations are going forward.

There have been many things happening at TalentAhead this year already which has

been a cycle somewhat like the World Cup 2014. There have been unexpected

surprises (much like Spain leaving the World Cup), some expected occurrences (like

Brazil going through to the quarter finals), and some unusual things which seemed

rather funny (like Suarez’ biting incident with Italy).

Time really flies when you are having fun – We are having a great time at

TalentAhead and we have already been running for a few months now and so far

these are our new developments.

Some unexpected good news (We are a BBBEE-Level 4 Contributor and we have

had outstanding support from our clients and candidates).

Some expected news (We are exceeding expectations and are still prospering in

our recruitment for people with disabilities).

Some unusual things which seem rather funny (We had cupcakes made with our

logo as a way of marketing our new brand, and although professional and a fun way

to portray our company, it seems funny to think that we make our clients HEAR,

SEE and literally EAT our brand).

We have 6 months left in the year and we need to be positive and motivated and

push through these next few months. Exciting times are ahead of us, so keep note

of our monthly newsletters for any new and exciting events or fantastic candidates

we have to present to you.

Final Word

TIP OF THE MONTH

HIRE FOR TODAY'S NEED AND TOMORROW'S VISION

economic sense for today's tasks, the best hires are people who position you to

profit as your business moves into the future. New people should provide the skills

you need in the future, not just match the job demands you see today. Be clear

about your strategic direction for the future, and then hire the talent to help you

achieve it.
