Message from our President

Greetings!

According to some recent Wall Street jobs reports, more people have resigned in recent months than were laid off.  This shows a sign of growing confidence because if people quit, they believe that they can land another job.  If more people are resigning it's time to identify the top 20-30% of your team and spend time with them.  Spend most of your time coaching

and counseling your top 20% instead of your bottom performers.  You have to devote yourself to your top performers and remember one of the main reasons that people leave a company is due to lack of appreciation  When you have an employee who is meeting or exceeding your expectations you should say to them today, "I appreciate you".

Sooner or later more companies are going to start hiring aggressively again.  So, immediately identify your best talent and begin to golden-handcuff them by spending time with them, help them plan their careers, listen to them and create a great relationship with them.  Be the kind of boss they admire while recognizing and rewarding them.  Help build their skills, trust and good relations while providing flexibility.

At Adams, we have rolled out many financial programs designed to help keep retention high within the company.  Among those are trips, internal referral bonuses, team leader profit center bonuses, company-wide profit sharing, deferred compensation and most recently a long term stock program where a substantial portion of the equity at Adams will end up being owned by our leadership team!  Remember that improved retention for us means a greater value of service that will be provided to our clients and candidates!

Thinking of hiring?  Your territory Market Master would appreciate hearing from you!  Click here (http://www.adams-inc.com/our_recruiters.asp) to get in contact with them!  Have your best month ever!
