I won’t keep you in suspense. Here’s the question: Who comes first? It seems to me that organizations have to choose. Is it shareholders, customers, or employees that will come first? And you can’t say all three. Yes, all three are important. But one has to come first. Because the answer drives the vision, mission, and values of the organization. It drives company culture.

HR Compliance is like a giant game of whack-a-mole. Once you think your company is compliant with all policies and procedures documented and in place, there’s a new or amended law, regulation, or final rule that pops up landing you back at ‘start.’ There are shifts, interpretations, and balancing acts to understanding compliance changes. Keeping up is not easy and it’s very time consuming.

I’ve been hearing lots of conversation about change. Whether it’s organizations that need to change OR departments that want to be more agile so they can respond to change OR individuals who want to create a change in their lives. Change is hard. Even when we want it. Typically, change involves developing new habits and routines. If change wasn’t hard enough, the speed in which we must adjust to change can be even more difficult.

When you hit a rough patch, what does your self-talk sound like? For some of us, in those moments, our inner voice comes on like a drill-sergeant full of harsh words and criticism.

An area of behavioral science research observing self-compassion is taking a closer look at how kindly or unkindly we view ourselves, and the effects on mood, health, and overall wellbeing.

You’ve heard these types of comments before as descriptors of an individual who attracts a positive rating from leadership and is viewed as someone with potential to go further in the organization. “He can be counted on to deliver consistent results; he’s dependable.” “She’s predictable; you get few surprises from her work.” Predictability is often, if not always, looked upon as a strength; an attribute that leaders find “comfortable” and des

When you are an HR executive, you are expected to don many hats. One of the biggest challenges is keeping your company out of legal battles and knowing the role of human factors in production network.
