Today, I want to take a moment to honor the work of Sir Cybersleuth, Shally Steckerl. Nearly a decade ago, I learned through a client at Intel that Shally was busy reinventing sourcing as we know it at Cisco.
Re-invention = innovation.
Since then, Shally has gone on to source for Google, for Microsoft, and now for the World . One of the things that impresses me the most about Shally is that he tracks and leverages the myriad and constant incremental changes on the Internet to stay out in front on the leading edge of Internet sourcing.
Check out his blog CyberSleuthing where you can read about the latest, coolest newdate limiting on Google. Or where you can learn how to snag Jigsaw contacts for free (yes, my friends, we're talking about "free stuff".) Shally is continually offering sourcers shorter paths to the best candidates. And for those who want to drill down evern more, Shally offers us hacks and cheatsheets (I highly recommend the Everything Bundle).
Yes, change in a web environment is a constant and that change is happening exponentially as the presentation below by Colorado high school teacher Karl Fisch details. In fact, my clients that include Google, Microsoft, Amazon and AOL often say managing that change resembles tuning the engine of a 747 while it is in flight at 30,000 feet altitude . . .not so easy, but Shally, Sir Cybersleuth, knows how to get it done.
