LEADERSHIP MATTERS
By MICHELLE WARREN

It's not a large agency's clout or a boutique's sexiness that attracts top talent, but the attitude of their leaders
Does size matter? When it comes to agencies and opportunities for employment, recruitment experts are divided.
There's no doubt so-called traditional agencies have been forced to defend their turf in recent years as formidable talent-fuelled upstarts and sexy boutique agencies grab headlines, clients and top talent.

THE HEADHUNTERS VIEW

A panel of top executive recruiters discuss the current trends shaping careers in marketing and advertising
The salary tables in our Salary Benchmarks report only tell part of the tale about the state of the job market at marketing companies and ad agencies in Canada. An array of trends are shaping what it's like for people who work in the industry, such as how quickly pay rates are rising (or, more recently, how slowly); what sorts of non-salary compensation are paid in various jobs; the flow of people in the business back and forth across the 49th parallel; and lifestyle and pay differences among Canadian regions.

To discuss these trends, we assembled a round table of five of the executive recruiters who helped us compile the numbers for our Salary Benchmarks tables. Our session was held in Toronto Sept. 5, so it doesn't reflect the impact of the terrorist attacks on the U.S. six days later. The moderator was Marketing's editor Stan Sutter, and managing editor Jim McElgunn and editorial assistant Averil Joseph were also in attendance. Read More...

REVENGE OF THE FORTY SOMETHINGS
(Excerpt from The Globe & Mail's Report on Business, By Trevor Cole, June 2000)

On a Friday afternoon in March, in their second-floor meeting room in Toronto's Yonge and Eglinton district, the members of the Executive Advancement Resource Network meet in a room that eight years ago regularly held 85 out-of-work execs. Today there are 17-five women and 12 men, most if not all over 45-sitting in business attire in a long U of plastic chairs listening to the aggressive proddings of E.A.R.N.'s Executive Director Colleen Clarke.
