By Linda Fisher Thornton HR Executives are telling me that job applicants are "interviewing their interviewers" to find out about their organizations' ethics. It makes sense.

In this trend toward "reverse interviewing," applicants are asking about people practices, community involvement and sustainability practices. .

One of the things that attracted me to blogging was the community. Ten years ago, commenting communities were HUGE on the blogs I would visit.

Effective Feedback. It was a Thursday morning and I was just rolling into the office. I was hurrying to the coffee machine for a dose of badly-needed caffeine when I heard a voice from behind me. “Skip, can we grab five minutes to talk about my email?” I took a deep breath because this individual knows me well enough to know: a) I need my coffee before you ask me to think. b) I resist and almost resent “five minute” requests since that almost never happens.

Did you know that over ninety percent of businesses fail in their first year on the market? This shows you how risky setting up a company can be. It’s very much a lottery whether your company is a success and survives for the long term or even beyond the first couple of years. Why is this? Well, first, there’s the competition. Thousands of new businesses open each year and it makes sense that customers are not going to buy from them all.

Everyone who has ever served with me on a team could probably agree I am not a wordsmith. I often say to people, “Listen to the principle of what I’m saying more than the actual words I use.” I tend to think and act very big-picture and am less in tune with the details of things. But words do matter. Greatly. I get that and often need help from our team in shaping the right words.

Your employees are your business’s main asset. Without them, the work that you need to get done day in, day out won’t be complete, the money that you need to make in order to turn over a profit won’t get made, and your job will be made ten times harder as you seek to carry your company’s burden alone. Without your workforce, your business is nothing.
