And, as a result, the metrics that are reported to CEOs and the executive committee result in no positive action being taken. That is because CEOs are laser focused on the strategic goals of the organization.

I love Nike. I would love to work at Nike. If the right position came along and someone said, “Tim, you can run talent at Nike, but you need to pay $500 to get in front of the right person at Nike”, I go to the ATM and hand that person $500. Okay, at one time in my career I would have done that to work at Nike, probably not now because I’ve got peeps on the inside!

by Matthew H. Parker. The Rhode Island federal court recently held that a buyer of an employer’s assets can be liable for the seller’s violations of federal and state wage laws, even if the buyer is a separate entity with distinct management and ownership from that of the seller. If the buyer continues the seller’s business operations, it should conduct careful due diligence and confirm that the seller will have sufficient assets after the sale to satisfy any lingering debts.

It's almost impossible to talk about employer brand without referencing social and digital media in the same sentence. After all, the job search and employment landscape has completely changed since Facebook, Twitter and LinkedIn came of age. From job seeking habits to employee communication, social media has changed the way organizations brand themselves as places to work from providing more ways to connect with future and current employers to more insight into the authentic employment experien

I know there’s lots of talk about changing the traditional performance appraisal process. One of the things that has to be addressed is how the annual performance review impacts other things. Like employee transfers – as today’s reader note points out. Dear Sharlyn, I’m hoping you can help me with this situation. I had my year-end performance review conversation with my manager.

The dichotomy between introverts and extroverts was once thought to be straightforward, with introverts directing energy inward, and extroverts outward. Recent behavioral science has found that the differences may be more nuanced. People can display traits from both sides of the spectrum and many individuals today self-identify as ambiverts—or someone whose personality lies somewhere in-between introversion and extroversion.

Your workforce is increasingly made up of millennials; this is unsurprising – they’re the ones with the most contemporary skills, and with each passing year they become a larger percentage of the working world. With close to 10,000 baby boomers turning 65 every day , millennials now represent the largest subset of America’s workforce. Approaching these younger workers with the attitude and expectations of a coach, rather than the antiquated characteristics of a traditional “boss,” is key t

ACA Times
MARCH 30, 2017
When news broke last week that the Affordable Care Act would no longer be repealed and replaced, it signified an end to the waiting game on the fate of America’s current healthcare policy. The greatest affected may be Medicaid. Prior to the indefinite stay of the ACA, Medicaid Expansion reached a halt. States that were already on board, remained on board, but with Trump’s stated plans to impose stricter rules within the Medicaid platform, other states did not move in either direction await

There are two teams that come into play when hiring occurs in a company. There’s management who tend to act on impulse when they see an employee with an impressive resume or cool ideas for ways to improve their business. Then, there’s HR which, we think you’ll agree, acts far more rationally. They keep a check on the legal side of hires and ensure that companies aren’t leaving themselves open to problems that could crop up in the future.

At first glance, there isn’t an immediate link between HR and Finance, but upon closer inspection, there are many benefits to forging a closer connection between the two. HR considers people to be the greatest asset within a company, whereas a Finance Director would strongly disagree. Finance pays far closer attention to money flowing in and out of a business; employees are viewed as a liability rather than an asset on the balance sheet.

96% of benefits leaders agree: detecting cancer early is the best way to get ahead of rising costs and improve employee health outcomes. So why is it that 82% of employers currently spend significantly more on post-diagnosis care and disease management rather than upstream care?
