Many people find it difficult wrapping their heads around the idea of a personal brand. There’s kind of existential struggle for identity that has brand atheists screaming ‘I am not a brand; I am a human being ‘The problem with this fractured line of argument is it’s locked into a specific definition, currency and expectation of branding. Great branding is far from that.

Many organisations have a challenge in forging a good working relationship between the finance department and the human resource (HR) department. Conflicts regarding the roles and goals of these departments are common in many organisations. The tension between the two departments starts from their traditional goals and perspectives.

Adobe’s evolved performance management program is aptly named the Check-in. Think about the feelings the name evokes, especially compared to its predecessor, the performance review. The check-in is lightweight, friendly and informal. A performance review is evaluative and impersonal — going directly against the concept of psychological safety needed to hear feedback.

It’s that time of year where we typically think of witches, candy and what we’re going to use to spike the Halloween punch. This year, it seems to be more about the widespread scary clown sightings. That said, I’m still a fan of watching scary movies- the cheesier, the better. With that in mind, I decided to have a scary theme for this month’s Carnival of HR.

Not every job allows Halloween costumes , of course. I’m not sure how comforted I’d be if my neurosurgeon arrived at the operating theater dressed as a “ Juice Demon.” But many workplaces do allow and even enjoy a little fun around Halloween with a one-day pass to pretend to be someone else. Here are a few costume ideas that won’t get in the way of your job, and won’t freak out anyone who happens to visit the day you’re in costume.

Hiring is a gamble. The cost of a bad hire is high — tens of thousands of dollars down the drain, from onboarding and training, not to mention re-recruiting, re-onboarding, etc. And the job market for tech talent is tighter than ever: if tech pros aren’t a needle in a haystack, they’re a very popular — and poachable — haystack. According to the BLS, in the 10 years from 2014-2024, employment of computer and information technology occupations will grow 12% — far above the average for all occupati
