Have you ever had a day at work when your mind was somewhere else and you couldn’t focus? It might have had something to do with stress, or maybe even stress at work itself. According to the Harvard Gazette, 36% of U.S. workers suffer from workplace stress — and it costs U.S. businesses $30 billion a year in lost workdays. Stress is a normal part of work and life, but too much of it can have dire effects on team morale and productivity.

Not a day goes by when I don’t feel bombarded by buzzwords and jargon. I can’t even imagine what it feels like to work in human resources. Leaders are told to embrace artificial intelligence, machine learning, and the candidate experience while also simultaneously embracing digitization, mixed reality, and blockchain.

Quicken’s CEO recovers from a disastrous ad with a very candid, “ We screwed up ,” and is praised, rightly so, for showing his high EQ. Uber’s own very EQ-deficient founder admits he needed to work on “ Travis 2.0 ” while the company works to revamp its own culture and salvage its image. In the meantime, the revolving door of the White House is moving with dizzying speed, and even allies are criticizing its toxic culture, with handlers purportedly in a constant scramble for new ways to keep thei

Simple post today. From time to time, HR pros have to do focus groups to determine the climate of the employee relations environment at their company. Ideally, this is done before there's smoke in the air. But at times, especially in a multi-location environment, that's impossible. So how do you approach a group of 10-12 employees (focus group) to get them to talk about the challenges, but not get beheaded in the process?

Businesses across the world are rapidly adopting artificial intelligence (AI) to streamline their HR management processes. When used within recruitment, AI would make the process more effective and data-driven. All HR recruiters are aware that an effective way of finding out about an applicant’s attitude, interests, and values is through their social media profiles; AI.

I completed The Fast Factory Challenge today. My goals for the 6-weeks were pedestrian: recharge my exercise routine, clean up my diet, and downsize my menopausal muffin top. Not for one moment did I entertain the idea of shifting my lifelong relationship with fitness. Yet, that's what happened. The building blocks were there. I've had the support of family, CrossFit coaches who challenged me to test my limits, and a cadre of runners who inspired me to train for a 10-miler.

Every business needs an employee handbook , right? This contains all those fun legal things like the fact that you’re an at-will employee, that you need to comply with a code of conduct, and what the dress code is (among other things). So, it’s a really, really important document.

From Uber’s media firestorm earlier this year which highlighted its lack of female employees and failure to address complaints of sexism to the recent memo from a Google engineer saying that women were more focused on “feelings and aesthetics than ideas,” the tech industry has been running into some serious HR challenges.

“I didn’t see it coming.” Then, when it was too late, when the human resources department or your supervisor handed you a layoff or termination notice, you wondered how you’d let yourself be blindsided. You’d thought yourself a rising star, your talent immunizing you against negative consequences. You didn’t see the signals that warned you that you’d skated onto thin ice once too often.

We’ve all been there: you like the company you work for, you get along with the people you work with, and everything would be perfect…if it weren’t for your boss. Bad relationships with supervisors are a leading reason why people leave an organization, even when all other aspects of the job are positive.

“You don’t have a positive attitude !” or “ You’re not a team player !” or “It was just a joke. Everyone jokes.” Look, I’m a fan of positive attitudes, teamwork, and jokes, but when it comes to race in the workplace, foul language and treating people poorly because of their skin color or n ational origin is never, ever, not once appropriate.

HR pros can be forgiven if they’re a bit skeptical about the IRS’ warnings to collect ACA employer mandate penalties. After all, they’ve been saying this for years without actually following through. But with the latest warning, the agency also included some proof that this time it’s for real. In a recent Q&A on its website, the IRS delved into specifics on how it would begin assessing employer mandates penalties on companies for their 2015 reporting.

Is it me, or did things seem to get just a little bit slower this week? I swear I noticed the first signs of 'Getting geared up for the Holidays' this week, at least judging by the relative calm of my email inbox. Or maybe it could be that I am just less popular and important than I like to think. Yeah, that probably has something to do with it too.

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 was kind of annoyed at the time of writing because the winter can be busy for my company, and my boss was going to be doing a series of really hard-to-set-up interviews during their ski cabin time that would have really sucked for me to try to jam into two days a week.
