Each day, you’re in a fast-paced race against your competitors to try to fill vacant positions with qualified candidates who fit well within your organization. Specialty positions with sought after key skill sets can be especially hard to fill.

'About a year or so ago, TaskRabbit for Business launched as a web portal aimed at companies looking for contingent labor. I asked in this Staffing Talk post whether the site and mobile app where you can outsource small, short-term jobs should have traditional staffing companies worried? Whether TaskRabbit was trying to undercut the staffing industry, or if it lives comfortably outside the confines of the traditional staffing space?

HR Compliance is like a giant game of whack-a-mole. Once you think your company is compliant with all policies and procedures documented and in place, there’s a new or amended law, regulation, or final rule that pops up landing you back at ‘start.’ There are shifts, interpretations, and balancing acts to understanding compliance changes. Keeping up is not easy and it’s very time consuming.

When the time comes though, entrepreneurs don’t have to “retire” and leave their companies. Instead, they must change their job description, becoming the architects of their company’s new ownership, management and leadership systems.
