The Source - June 2008
The Source
June 2008 Vol. I, Issue 4
SourceCon 2008 is approaching quickly - time is running out to get your ticket at a reduced rate!
We all place varying amounts of value on different things. Value is more than just the currency a product or service costs; it includes time saved or lost, manpower required, and many other factors. The value that we as researchers and sourcers bring to our organizations is priceless, though sometimes it is hard to communicate the extent of the value we add beyond a simple hire - the networking, the relationship building, the pipelining, etc. The June issue of The Source contains different views of how value is perceived in our industry and how to express this in our daily work.
In this issue:
- A Business Case for Attending SourceCon
- Ask the Sourcing Dude
- The Good-Fast-Cheap Model
- This month's Spotlight
- Digging for Hidden Treasure
- Technology Review
Please let us know what you think; improvements come from your suggestions so let your voice be heard!

With all challenges though, there can only be one winner and we will be officially announcing who that person is and how they managed to master challenge number 2 in the next week.
Thank you to all who participated in the challenge and especially the dozens of international Sourcers who took part from around the world.
