Seems to me the author figured this out about 100 years too late!

The "author" says that the number of gifted and knowledgeable people working in human resources are rapidly disappearing onto the retirement rolls. He outlines a scenario that has arisen as a result of this which could have disastrous consequences for the employee involved

How does "gifted and knowledgeable" fit in the same sentence as "human resources"?

* Based on % of growth

With a 7.8 percent increase, Georgetown, TX was named the fastest-growing city in the country. Five Texas cities made the top 15.

Only incorporated areas with populations of 50,000 or more by July 1, 2014 were considered, according to the U.S. Census Bureau.
A little more on the growth:

Incidentally, five of the eight cities that added the most people in sheer numbers were also in Texas, including Houston, San Antonio, Dallas, Fort Worth and Austin.

It’s not just that people are moving from one Texas city to another; rather, they’re moving from other states to Texas. Last year, nearly half a million people moved to Texas, according to Census Bureau data released in March. What’s more, the four largest metro areas in the state — Houston, Dallas, Austin and San Antonio — “together added more people last year than any state in the country except for Texas as a whole,” the Census Bureau notes.
