I believe one of the key metrics in recruiting is time to fill. It’s also a very flexible metric. Traditionally, we think of time to fill as the time it takes from the job requisition being approved to the job offer being accepted. If the requisition is approved on April 1 and the job offer is accepted on April 29, then time to fill for that one job is 29 days.

It’s no secret that the construction industry is facing a skilled worker shortage. The recent recession saw many construction workers leaving the industry, and now with the retirement of the baby boomers, finding quality, skilled workers is an up-hill battle for many human resources professionals in our industry.

Turns out that amount (of money) is something that is actually quantifiable and, depending on what you consider to be either physical money or assets easily converted into money, estimates range from 5 trillion to around 80 trillion dollars.

I love the definition of employee engagement that I read in this recent TalentCulture post. It’s succinct and comprehensive: . When employees are engaged, they adopt the vision, values, and purpose of the organization they work for. They become passionate contributors, innovating problem solvers, and stunning colleagues. . But what does it mean to be a disengaged employee ?

Every executive team understands that company culture is a vital, if often overlooked part of their strategy. Culture is neglected because it is always essential but often not urgent. Why? Executive teams often believe they are communicating their values more clearly than they actually are. The reasons for this are simple. We tend to overestimate how much we are communicating and the fidelity with which it is received.

March featured a cut-throat Nerf shootout (sounds violent, but I can assure you it was not), and April saw us channel our calm, creative, contemplative sides as we painted and decoupaged (?) picture frames for the mothers in our lives. Two extremes, I know, but both activities helped us accomplish our planned objectives: We had fun!

Turnover happens at every season and at every company. Sometimes reductions in force (RIFs) affect a large number of employees at once, and other times they affect one. Regardless of the company or industry, the way we treat employees as they exit has never been more important than it is today. When we surveyed 1,300 job seekers, we learned 38% of those who were terminated or laid off have shared a negative review about the company who let them go either online or with a professional or personal

It’s almost impossible to read an article about company culture that doesn’t talk about its impact on employee performance. Yet for all of this coverage, there is very little public data for leadership teams that supports this relationship. We can do better. I’ll amend that earlier statement to say that there is very little public data that is easily digestible.

Historically, a manager’s responsibility was clear cut: get your team delivering results. If the team wasn’t delivering, replace the talent; if they were delivering, recognize them for their service every 5 years… times are changing and managers own HR. Today, the role of a manager is much more complicated. The talent shortage, as warned in the late 90s by McKinsey & Co. , is real, and companies need people more than people need companies.

For any employee in any industry, their workplace is revisited over five days a week for more than 8 hours a day, making it as close to a second home. When you find your employee dreading to come to work, rushing to leave early and underperforming from the expectations you’ve set – you haven’t provided a nurturing and safe environment for them. A home is desirable and employers today need to be aware of what makes their employees desire to stay and work for them.

Achieving gender parity in the workplace has never been a simple goal. The obstacles to true equality are abundant. It seems that every time humanity manages to scale one, more pop up on the horizon. The good news is that the research is clear: Diverse companies perform better. Yet more recent research suggests that women and people of color who bring up diversity issues or hire a nonwhite or female employee are actually seen in a negative light by their coworkers.

“Change before you have to.”. -Jack Welch. Culture change or evolution is one of the most challenging projects for a leadership team to undertake. In fact, culture change is so difficult that many leadership teams choose to not address it all, or take a top-down approach that mandates a new set of priorities. The cost, in either case, is lower employee engagement, and performance that suffers across the board.

Does your internal company culture impact your external brand? Yes. Think about company culture as your organization’s identity to the world outside the four walls of your office. Every interaction your employees have with customers, suppliers, even friends and family impacts how your company is perceived. When your company seeks to create one image, but doesn’t live up to it, your brand will be perceived as inauthentic.

Human Resource is one of those industries which does not quite make its way into science fiction books, and no kid grows up thinking of revolutionizing the technology inside this particular market.
