The Great Recession has been longer and more enduring than any economic slowdown since the 1930s. It has brought wrenching dislocation and arguably created—or, more accurately revealed—structural deficiencies in the economies of the West.

Big deal. Or, more to the point, big deals. Faced with such adversity, the best within the HR world have recognized the adage that with crisis comes opportunity. While others have been sidelined, these leaders seized the field to make new, game-changing plays.

But the editors have decided, going forward, we want this space to recognize the pinnacle of the profession. So, as we all look for ways to spur performance in the new normal, look up.
