Impending Crisis
By Roger E. Herman, Tom Olivo and Joyce Gioia

9 months on Business Book Best Seller List; #11 for January 2004

The labor shortage will be much more severe than most people realize. By 2010, we'll be 10,033,000 people short in the United States. Bottom line: corporate leaders must begin now to change the way they do business. This issue is not only strategic, but highly competitive, as well. Competition for competent workers will drive competition for customers and capital. See the evidence, get the advice, understand the situation. Read this book . . . before your competitors do!

This graphic from Impending Crisis tells the story. Until the mid-1990s, we had more people than jobs. Then came the challenges of the late 1990s: The Labor Shortage. With more jobs than people, employers were forced to compete—aggressively—for the talent they needed. Then the economy slowed in 2000, 2001, and early 2002. This slowdown caused major layoffs and dampened the churning in the labor market. The Impending Workforce Crisis
