The Column: Volume 2, Issue 1 - February 2006

As we welcome in the new year, we all find ourselves reflecting upon the previous year–upon our successes, failures and overall progress enjoyed both personally and by our organizations. We then resolve to make improvements in the areas where there is room for change and to continue with what was “right” during the past year. You, as employers, should be going through this exercise in all areas of your business and, in particular, as you evaluate your recruitment, staffing and retention programs.

In the coming year, we, at Special Counsel, resolve to keep you informed on the latest trends in staffing and recruitment and offer our insight into how your organizations can stay competitive in the staffing game. Both our editorial staff and our recruitment and staffing professionals prepare the materials for The Column by drawing from their own professional experiences that they daily encounter.

In this first issue of The Column in 2006, we outline some current trends in the legal marketplace, strategies for marketing to top performers and information on diversity initiatives. As always, we welcome any suggestions, comments or questions you would like to share with us so that we may incorporate your thoughts into future editions of the newsletter. Please email us at the following address: column@specialcounsel.com. We look forward to hearing from you soon.

Best wishes for a happy and prosperous 2006!

Jodi L. Nadler
Vice President, Special Counsel
