1) Employers: take a chance on new talent. Hire a young person and invest in his or
her growth. Invest in your current employees so your workplace culture can
sustain loyalty and commitment. Talk about your business with enthusiasm and
pride, and your customers will notice – and buy.
2) Government: shift the focus from providing
unemployment benefits to providing meaningful, actionable and measureable incentives to hire. Tie stimulus and loans to
increasing headcount, building employment, rehiring the laid off and investing
in the young.
3) Boards of directors: stop looking at quarter-to-quarter
results and concentrate instead on building long-term value that will pull the country out of the
doldrums. Work to keep jobs here. The past thirty or forty years have been
devoted to moving resources and
income off shore – it’s time to bring it back. Lead the companies you are
guiding and investors will follow.
4) Employees: invest in your job. It’s really investing in
yourself, so keep learning. Don’t take anything for granted – you alone are
responsible for improving your performance and job prospects.
5)
Job hunters: don’t
be afraid to take the entry level job. Don’t balk if the salary or benefits
aren’t exactly what you thought you’d get. Put your heart and soul into
everything you do. Be excellent and be responsible.
