Portland, Here We Come

The promise of the “social web” to make recruiting easier has yet to be realized by those employers who secretly pine for “the way things were.” Social networking sites, blogs, video, podcasting and emerging technologies that should make it easier to connect with our recruiting audience often creates more confusion than opportunity. But it doesn’t have to be that way, it shouldn’t be that way.

On Friday June 20th you are invited to spend quality time with some of the brightest minds in the business, people who have been recognized for navigating this new recruiting landscape and for leading others to master it too. The experience starts with the Portland Recruiting Roadshow:

Date:
Friday, June 20, 2008

Time:
8:30 am PT – 2:30 pm PT

Location:
adidas Corporate Headquarters
5055 N Greeley Ave
Portland, OR 97217

You’ll meet and learn from trailblazers like industry analyst and publisher John Sumser, recruiters and brand mavens Steve Bonomo and Steve Fogarty, interactive impresario Louis Vong, recruiting and talent strategist Susan Burns, and Internet recruiting and employer branding guru Don Ramer.

The day’s agenda, speaker profiles and easy registration are available online now: http://tinyurl.com/6j3czu

From communication to conversation to Roadshow: Where’s your head at?

I think one-on-one communication is best. A personal note or email, phone call or face-to-face conveys more meaning for its immediacy, relevance and directness than being copied or conferenced in ever could.

The medium is important too.  Reading leads us to hear the sender’s voice in ways that a telephone call makes impossible. The nuance of a word and the inflection of a voice cannot convey the same messages communicated by facial expressions and body language.
