In case you hadn't noticed, an economic recovery is underway. Albeit, it's slow, but business and hiring growth is occurring. For the 16th consecutive month, ExecuNet's Executive Job Creation Index posted gains, and again, recruiter confidence is high.



But unless you're experiencing it yourself, you'd never know it from the negative headlines and overall pessimism. In this interview with ExecuNet President and Chief Economist Mark Anderson, he talks about the "continued shocks to the system" that are fueling the negativity and what today's business leaders can do to stay focused to meet their own goals.

What are you experiencing? Are you seeing positive signs of recovery?
