A Few Positive Thoughts

It only seems fair to counterbalance my last post with a few less negative reactions to 2010. Smaller companies seem to be finding new niche markets for their products and are gradually doing some hiring as a result. Former employees of the larger firms (IBM, AT+T, Dow Jones, etc.) need to reinvent themselves as multi-faceted team players and take advantage of these new opportunities.

Entrepreneurship seems to be on the rise as people realize their prior careers might never reappear. This will lead to some very talented people bringing new and interesting concepts to the business world.

People are learning to do more with less. Even though this is somewhat sad to realize as a state of our economy, who could argue with making our society more cost conscious, efficient, creative, and ultimately a lot more profitable?

There! I tried to be positive and it was not too painful!!

Hoping all my readers have a safe final weekend of 2010!
