Staffing Industry Trends January 2022

In December, the American Staffing Association reported the Staffing Index was over 100 for the thirteenth consecutive week. That sounds like momentum! As I’ve recently talked with our clients and other staffing owners, many have said, “We’ve got great momentum right now!”


What does that mean, and how do you get significant momentum? 

 

For quite some time, I’ve had a note taped to my computer monitor which reads:

Clarity + Focus + Repetition = Momentum!

 

Clarity

Clearly define where you want to be. What do you want to achieve? Have you taken the time as a leader and team to set specific, attainable goals? Have those goals been communicated and embraced by the entire organization?

Focus 

What actions do you need to take every single day to get there? How many outbound calls, submittals, and placements will it take to achieve those goals?  

Repetition 

Are you consistent with these actions, and are you tracking them daily or weekly?  

 

There’s no better time than the present to get that momentum going!
