RPO Possibilian

David Eagleman, a neuroscientist, who has dedicated his scientific research to the relationship between the timing of perception and the timing of neural signals, recently coined a new term: possibilian. He came up with this word to describe his approach to his cutting-edge research on time perception, Neurolaw and Synesthesia.

So what is a possibilian?

According to David Eagleman, a possibilian is a word to describe those who “celebrate the vastness of our ignorance, are unwilling to commit to any particular made-up story, and take pleasure in entertaining multiple hypotheses.”

The more I ponder this, the more I believe Recruitment Process Outsourcing should adopt the word possibilian or RPO possibilian.

It’s perfect word for those Global RPO and talent acquisition influencers who continue to expand the industry boundaries, challenge conventional wisdom, create new delivery models, and refuse to accept the status quo.

As a matter of fact, we should start an annual Global RPO Possibilian award.

Any 2010 nominations?
