Recruiters Won’t Find Them Very Often
In an article in the Wall Street Journal (November 21, 2005) Carol Hymowitz says:
“Executives talk about how their most important job is finding and keeping the best talent. Unless they regularly recruit good people who can solve problems, originate ideas and inspire others, they can’t grow or compete effectively, they say.”
Unfortunately, recruiters have a hard time finding people who can solve problems and originate ideas even though there are plenty of college and university graduates. The reason is simple - the complete method of creative problem solving and decision making for all fields, also known as the scientific method - is hardly taught at all in our schools. This has occurred because of the blunder I have described that resulted from false claims that the scientific method doesn’t exist.
When are our top educators going to correct this situation?
