How do you make your employees happy? As an HR professional or executive for your company, this is a question that's likely always top of mind. And for good reason—having a team of happy, engaged employees is not only good for office morale—it's good for your customers, too. A recent Gallup poll showed that only 32 percent of employees feel engaged at work.

This week I’m in Atlanta for the Microsoft Ignite event. Yes, I see the puzzled expressions. Microsoft? IT? What am I thinking? No, I’m not making a career change. I’m perfectly happy where I am. Here’s the deal. I have been to tons of events over the years, and what always surprises me is the fact that I get something out of the most unlikely places.

As a former CHRO (Chief Human Resources Officer), I’m familiar with the role. Leader of the HR team, confidant of the CEO, the person in charge of the individuals who drive the larger corporate machine. We mitigate legal risk, optimize performance, handle personal and career growth, and essentially make sure the company can do what it wants to do. Oversimplified, perhaps, but at its core, this is what the role has traditionally always done.

Professional success isn’t achieved overnight. A career is marked by years of actions taken around goals: setting and re-setting them, failing to reach them, hitting small milestones that together mean big gains, abandoning the ones that take us down unproductive paths and revising our strategies to accommodate changes. This goals journey, so to speak, is what shapes our lives in our chosen professions.

If you came because of that title looking for a serious post on intern programs, think again. I was in Auburn Saturday night for LSU/Auburn and Auburn has a kicker that kicks it out of the end zone. every.single.time. After an Auburn FG in the first half, Auburn did what it always does - it kicked it out of the end zone. But an enterprising young girl who works in the Auburn video/photo department and was a former ESPN intern thought she could shuffle from her position on the ground in the end

I’ve talked to several technology companies in the last few weeks that are drinking their own champagne, and it’s one of the most interesting “meta” conversations I’ve had of late. To back up a bit, I have always wondered if these firms used their own technology and services to manage internal processes. After all, that would demonstrate some level of credibility and also allow an opportunity to see things from the user perspective, right?

The IRS has revealed some more drafts for their 2016 reporting forms, and already things have changed. You may recall in an earlier ACA Times article where the topics of “good faith” and “reasonable cause” were deciphered, as the AIR system became more cognizant of margins of error when filing. These errors inevitably could bring on penalties, so phrases like “good faith effort” came into the conversation—suggesting that as long as there was an effort to be correct in information, penalties coul

English is generally viewed as the international business language, but that doesn’t mean you can coast on the expectation that everyone speaks it. Learning a few phrases in the local language shows respect for your associates and their culture and can serve as a great icebreaker. As the world becomes more globalized, however, many companies may expect you to have skills in more than one language (or at least the tenacity to find language support in foreign markets).

You know that a mis-hire carries with it a financial impact that can last for months on end. But there are other more subtle costs associated with mis-hiring that many, even in the HR field, don’t consider or don’t put enough weight into. In fact, these can last for years, long after the financial impact is absorbed.

Workplace policies are supposed to serve the needs of the business – which includes attracting and retaining great employees. And yet some truly terrible policies have stuck around for decades, despite fairly sweeping changes in work culture. These policies are often rooted in outdated work norms and a lack of trust from managers toward employees – which is one reason why good companies and good employees don’t want anything to do with them.

The promise of AI for today’s organizations is real, yet in a frenzied state of experimentation, many stumble to get to a full-scale enterprise. As companies race to discover what generative AI can do, HR must lead conversations about how to balance cutting-edge innovations with integrity, trust, and diversity. Globally, organizations are at a critical intersection of Diversity, Equity, Inclusion, and AI acceleration.

I’ve worked at a company for 17 years, and for the past 8.5 years in a break-out division that’s now the fastest growing/most profitable of the company. Our management was pretty compressed, but in the past six months a former peer became my supervisor and her manager (formerly mine too) has had another layer of management added above her.
