 What is your career pedigree? Abeceder managing director Michael Millward, suggests that career minded professionals need to consider the impact an employer will have on their career pedigree when considering a potential career move.
 PEST and SWOT Analysis explained Abeceder associate Sue Heward explores problem-solving and decision-making, and focuses in this article on the use of both the PEST and SWOT Analysis models when analysing the business environment in order to decide future direction and actions. Sue describes these familiar terms and outlines how they can be used in the business context and why they are important to your business.
 Smaller Employers pay the price of imperfect recruitment strategy  Lookism is the latest form of discrimination recruiters need to address. In this article Abeceder managing director Michael Millward explains what it is and the problems it creates for both recruiters and candidates.
 Testing Times... Using Psychometrics (A guide for managers) The term “psychometrics” is becoming more common amongst the HR community and also within recruitment as a whole. However, there is very little common understanding amongst general managers about what exactly psychometrics are, how they can benefit a company and how they should be used. In this article Abeceder associate Jane Addy looks at the whole area of psychometrics, taking in both the frequently asked questions and then looking at how psychometrics can contribute in a wider role outside of pure assessment and selection.
 When Good Workers Turn Bad…What’s keeping your people on the right track? In a world where we see so many people and projects go off-target, how can you make sure yours stay on the right track? Abeceder Associate Richard Pate explores how what has gone wrong in Iraq for the American military, and compares this to recent commercial scandals to identify how managers can stop their own teams from adopting an anything goes approach, so long as it achieves “the result”.
 High Performance with High Integrity an interview with Ben Heineman Ben W. Heineman, former general counsel of GE is in the United Kingdom to deliver a lecture at the Oxford Union and agreed to discuss his new book High Performance with High Integrity with Abeceder managing director Michael Millward.
 THE TRANSITION CURVE – a model to remember in times of change The Transition Curve is one of a number of pertinent models to explain how people react during periods of change. Given that change is a constant, the ability to firstly, understand and then help people to successfully adapt and change could be a key to the continued success of an organisation. This article will explain what it is, why it is important to organisations and how to use it to your benefit.
