When we hear about any 40 Under 40 list, regardless of the industry it serves, we tend to stereotype the honorees. We envision young professionals who are enterprising, determined, ambitious, hardworking, disciplined and so on.
But SIA’s 2022 40 Under 40 share some extraordinary differentiators from those of other industries. They have helped transition the industry from its pre-pandemic model of work to one that is more candidate-friendly and flexible. It takes both resilience and a vision to do that. In addition, this group loves working with people and placing them in jobs. These rising stars have seized the opportunity to build back better.
Research conducted by SIA and others indicates that candidate care is going to be a key differentiator in tomorrow’s industry. The winners will be those who grasp this and show others the way. Our honorees are doing just that. You can read their stories on page 14.
Elsewhere in this issue, industry insiders weigh in on different trends that can help your firm’s momentum. From a discussion of the global industry’s growth drivers to ensuring the right people are at your core and how legal counsel can make sure they are providing what their company needs, SIA staff and guest contributors share their expertise.
We hope we are providing you with the right blend of information on people and tools to help do your job better. Tell us what we are doing right and where we can improve. We look forward to hearing from you.
