Executive roles abound despite tightening job market
The job market is becoming increasingly challenging for most job seekers, but recruiting at the executive level isn't slowing down, Bloomberg reports. As activist investors and increased M&A activity lead boards to reexamine their corporate leadership, churn is high among CEOs compared to last year. On the flip side, "burnout, retirement and performance pressure" are compelling some top executives to seek greener pastures, with 66% of respondents in a Russell Reynolds Associates survey indicating they are open to switching roles.
Thanksgiving is a special time of year to pause, step back and express gratitude for loved ones and communities. Across LinkedIn, corporate leaders in various sectors have posted words of appreciation and highlighted charitable actions meant to mark the holiday. While Thanksgiving traditions date back to the early 1600s, it wasn't declared a fixed and national celebration until 1863 by President Abraham Lincoln.
