Our Subscribers Say...
Credit Today's Resource Directory and their online e-mail forum (ListServ) provide information on almost any credit-related topic you can think of. It is a great way to exchange information with other credit professionals. As the saying goes, "You don't know what you don't know."
- Scott Goen,
Credit Manager, Big Lots Stores, Inc., Wholesale Division
"We've recently started using the ListServ tool within Credit Today. This is phenomenal and powerful forum for gaining immediate feedback, ideas, and suggestions, relative to any credit topic under the sun, all in a real-time e-mail format."
-Javier Vela, Senior Credit Manager, Global Credit Services, JDA Software Group Inc.
"Being a part of the Credit Today online community is like having the expertise of hundreds of credit managers at your fingertips. These credit execs are willing to help you solve topical business issues as they arise. In the current environment of ever increasing competing priorities which reduce our opportunities to meet peers out of the office face-to-face, this is the most valuable tool you can have on your desktop! It's important that we have a mechanism to reach out to our counterparts quickly to exchange knowledge as well as to stay on top of industry trends."
- Victoria Artis, Director of Customer Financial Services, Pfizer, Inc.
"Over the last 10 years I've seen Credit Today evolve from a monthly credit publication into a quality source of information and guidance for the B2B credit community. The website, with its user friendly form downloads, will take you from examples of new account credit applications to bankruptcy forms and everything in between.
The Credit Today ListServ has become the pre-imminent online forum, providing an opportunity for discussion and comments (and occasional humor) from an impressive list of credit professionals."
David Dungan, Director of Credit
Justin Brands, Inc. (A Berkshire Hathaway company)
Fort Worth, Texas
"There are numerous credit periodicals available to the credit professional today. How good is Credit Today? Is it relevant? I always have to read it late, or online because my credit analysts want to read it the minute it comes in. When my staff wants to read a publication before I have a chance to read it then something is working in that publication. We have cancelled our other subscriptions. When you have the best you do not need the rest."
Ron Woods
Corporate Credit Manager-World Wide
Thales Navigation, Inc.
"The newsletter, coupled with the website and the ListServ, are to us, more valuable than any other credit publication, bar none. I try to use at least one article out of each newsletter for departmental training/discussion sessions."
D. Mark Constantine
Corporate Credit Mgr
Fulton Paper Company
"I love Credit Today and read every issue cover to cover. For me, the greatest perk of a subscription is ListServ. I believe Credit Today's ListServ members may be the most knowledgeable Credit brain trust in existence today. I have saved and categorized hundreds of contributions on a wide variety of topics which I refer to often. It's an easy and cost effective way to network and learn."

Eight Factors That Correlate With Increasing Job Satisfaction
August 1, 2007
We believe that our data on job satisfaction are among the most important in the entire survey. After all, we spend more time on the job than most anyplace else, including time sleeping or with our family. So knowing the factors that relate to increasing - or decreasing - job satisfaction is pretty important. We run the data on job satisfaction against every variable (over 140) in the survey to determine which are correlated to a statistically significant level. And we calculate correlatioin using a variable known as "Pearson's coefficient," which ranges from 0 (total randomness) to 1 (the numbers run exactly together). Keep in mind that correlation does not always imply causation. Here are the results of our study showing factors most highly correlated with increasing job satisfaction: Positive Correlations
Those who believe senior management is in touch with the contribution of credit .353
Those who believe their compensation package is fair .340
Those who feel they are working closer to their potential .171
Those expecting a bonus .160
Those expecting a higher increase in their base salary this year .148
Those whose job performance is evaluated based on their ability to manage staff .153
Those expecting a higher standard increase for their credit department .146
Those who rank "challenge" as an important source of job satisfaction .143
