Optimism about our business future is rising: study

A new study of Australian professionals by recruitment consultancy Robert Walters indicates 75 per cent of professionals believe their sector is showing signs of improvement, Marketing reports.

The study found 77 per cent of respondents in accounting and finance were optimistic, while 81 per cent of sales and marketing professionals polled were confident about the future.

Australians working in the legal field were the most confident about the future with 98 per cent of respondents from the sector saying they were optimistic.

Isn't optimism a decision? I think the HR sector does see the tail end of corporate economics. Sometimes HR is the first to go and the last to be rehired but they are so valuable to protecting corporate interests. If we are not optimistic, in some way, we just have to decide to be creative. Maybe some of those high hoping professionals had just jumped ship from HR? Curious.
