"Most ISTAT people know a bit about the X-1. It was the rocket ship nicknamed Glamorous Glennis that Chuck Yeager flew to fame and glory, being the first to fly faster than the speed of sound (Mach 1.0). But what is less widely known is that there were actually six—or maybe seven—X-1s, depending on how you count them." Share this article on Twitter. Simply copy and paste the information below.

Today, on average, people stay at their jobs for just over four years. For millennials, it’s even less, at just under three years. Compare these numbers to the long-lasting careers of previous generations—picture the GM and IBM lifers behind steel tanker desks—and it’s clear that today’s company leaders face a very different landscape in their goal to find and retain the best people.
