Regional downturn tightens job market: networking now is crucial, executives need to circulate before layoffs
Article Abstract:
Asian corporate executives are advised to circulate and network with prospective employers as a precautionary measure to avert the pressures of layoffs. The Asian economic downturn has forced many corporate bodies to slash their executive staff. Many human resource experts believe that networking prior to layoffs is the best means of getting the job and position an executive wants, since many human resources managers are looking for a stable individual, as opposed to an executive driven by desperation, in looking for personnel to fill up positions.

IOC's Kevan Gosper attacks calls for a quick fix
Article Abstract:
International Olympic Committee (IOC) member Kevan Gosper believes that firing IOC Pres Juan Antonio Samaranch will not help in the effort to restructure the 105-year old organization. Rather, he insists that Samaranch should lead the transformation of the IOC since he still has the confidence of most of the sporting bodies in the world, including IOC non-members. The clamor for the Samaranch's resignation and IOC reformation was triggered by bribery allegations surrounding 2002 Winter Games in Salt Lake City, UT.
