The Future of Beauty [REPORT]
More than nearly any other fast-moving consumer goods (FMCG) sector, the beauty industry is guided by trends. And over the last few years, multiple trends have emerged with the promise that they will redefine the future of beauty.

And while that’s more true than ever, how are you supposed to know when something really is a thing, and when it’s just a flash in the pan?

In barbaric and prehistoric times, before primitive man invented religion and prayed to gods for intercessions, man was isolated and alone, facing an uncertain and terrifying world that worked by its own logic. Would the sun rise every day? Would winter fade and spring follow in its stead? Would there be fish to catch, prey to hunt, rain for water and crops, bountiful harvests, cures for disease, pregnancy and babies, victory in war? Would the tribe flourish? Tribes were like advertisers today, looking for certainties and prosperity in a hostile world. By Michael Farmer

In recent years I have read 3213 blogs on “How to Get the Job!” They include: “Five Secrets Interviewers Never Reveal,” “Five Secrets Your Resume Reveals,” “Five Methods to Instant Hiring” and “Five Reasons Interviewers Hate You.” Perhaps you’ve seen those blogs. Few, if any, of these well-meaning pieces match my experiences in the process of hiring. The “five tips” articles may be true in the halls of business schools, textbooks and HR manuals but that’s not how a person is chosen for a job. I have hired and witnessed the hiring of thousands of people at private and public companies. I have hired at 100-year-old companies and at start-ups. I’ve hired people who earn much more or much less than I did.
