The most significant consequences cited by study participants were stress (52%) and delayed or uncompleted projects (44%).

Workplace productivity is a funny thing. The basic premise is that the more hours employees work, the more productive they are. But there’s a limit. At some point, employees become fatigued or disgruntled and aren’t productive. We’ve all heard, “Work smarter, not harder.” Some companies are taking that adage to heart, exploring the counterintuitive possibility that a shorter workweek could actually boost productivity.

One of the first lessons that I learned as a consultant was “just because I can, it doesn’t mean I should” For example, just because I can do my own taxes, doesn’t mean I should.

Here’s a bit of irony: When we think of health care we don’t often think of health or wellness; we think of insurance to help us cope with illness and injury. We also think of the process of dealing with those benefits — which on many occasions will include wait times, filling out forms, juggling in-network and out-of-network providers, waiting for claims to be processed, the limitations of coverage and administrative complexity.

All companies can custom-design maternity leave benefits as a tactic to compete with larger firms in attracting and retaining talent while also creating a great company culture. Under FMLA, employers with 50 or more employees must provide new and adoptive moms up to 12 weeks to care for themselves and their infant. (Also, check your state laws on maternity leave.).

We’ve all heard the saying: people don’t quit their jobs; they quit their managers. But in my experience, the problem is always bigger than one toxic individual. Unsatisfying work is a product of an unsatisfying workplace. People leave their workplaces when they feel unappreciated, overburdened, excluded, unsafe or besieged by personal conflict. After a bad day at the office, 45 percent of employees who have been with their companies less than a year admitted to applying to new jobs, according t

Action verbs are the most effective verbs to use in job descriptions. What is an action verb? It’s a verb that expresses physical or mental action. Examples of action verbs: The CEO motivates his team. The developer writes code. The accountant approves the balance sheet. An action verb is distinct from linking verbs (am, are, is, was, were, etc.).) and helping verbs (can, shall, will could,would, should, etc.).

China Gorman measures the progress of CEOs owning talent and culture-related progress in their organizations. In 2013 I wrote a pretty popular piece on my blog titled, Memo to HR. It was about how CEOs were stepping up and owning talent- and culture-related progress in their organizations – and HR needed to be prepared. Recently, I was looking at that post and reviewing the list of signs that a CEO was becoming a talent champion (although I didn’t label it that then), and thinking that the progr
