Skills crisis is global - Business Day 13 June 2008 - INTERNATIONALLY, privately held businesses reflected employment growth of only 4%, compared with SA`s 6% year-on-year growth rate, according to Grant Thornton`s employment growth index, released yesterday. With double digit growth Vietnam (14%), India (12%), Mainland China (12%) and Armenia (11%) were at the top of the employment growth table. Thailand (-4%), Italy (0%), and France, Ireland, and New Zealand (1%) were at the bottom. One factor curbing business growth is no doubt a lack of skills. This was still the biggest constraint to business growth, Grant Thornton found. The shortage is not a domestic phenomenon. Globally, 37% of privately held businesses in 34 countries rank a shortage of skills as their top business growth constraint. SA`s construction sector is the most affected. Businesses are using a variety of strategies to develop and fast-track key employees.

Values
MINDCOR evolved from the acquisition of SaleSearch, a recruitment company founded in 1973. The business was repositioned as an executive search and selection company 12 years ago by Winky Ringo, MINDCOR’s Executive Chairman. As the former Chairman of two JSE listed companies, Winky brings to the industry an extensive, highlevel executive network and 37 years of diverse business experience within both the South African and international business arenas. This, combined with his natural propensity to empower individuals and contribute to transformation in South Africa, laid the foundation for the creation of MINDCOR. The management team is complemented by experienced industry authorities.
