Nice posting…. it certainly makes one think…

Michael Porter developed his famous five forces model 1n 1979 for understanding any industry (line of business).

Maybe Sara Chi has a seven forces model to understand any candidate… a structured methodology of some type ???

(Given how logical and visual you are Sara, I’ll buy the book when it’s published.)

Very nice post, Sara. The strongest sourcers tap the competitive intelligence community for methods and resources, even if they didn’t start there themselves like you did. While I was at Microsoft, we often hosted local chapter meetings of the Society for Competitive Intelligence Professionals (scip.org) and those folks definitely know their stuff! Many ways to apply that knowledge to recruitment sourcing, as indicated by your post and diagram.

Thanks Ian, I know the diagram is probably not MECE but serve the purpose as good starting point as you said.

Thanks again !
