There’s a common thought and saying that some things can’t be done alone. We all need help and most of the time we’re too shy to ask for it. Either that or we’re too arrogant and reluctant to ask. The thing is, when we do ask for help and we receive the right type of help, we usually thrive better than we expected if we were to complete the task alone.

Recently I was interviewed by a good friend from SHRM’s Public Affairs team, Mary Kaylor. She asked me a few questions about the HR Technology Conference, and you can read it all here. What I want to expound upon here is the final question in the interview. I had to be succinct in my response to her but I think it’s worth a discussion.

“Contagious presenteeism” is an erratic plague that businesses worldwide are fighting to get rid of.

Every summer, I plant a small veggie garden in my Michigan backyard. Even though the location is too shady for some of the sun-loving plants, it’s the only place that works in our yard, so we (and by “we”, I mean both the plants and I) make do. This summer I experimented with the placement of several plants to see if they would thrive in the shadier part of the garden.

Those in charge of hiring can typically rattle off a solid list of traits that attract a job seeker to an open position within their business.

However, there is a range of other components that professionals are seeking out as they look for their next career opportunity.

A key predictor of success in any endeavor comes from mindset. It can be tempting to approach the challenges of establishing, rebuilding, or preserving a company culture as an uphill battle when more and more work is done remotely. Managing the corporate culture of a mixed or mobile workplace is a relatively new phenomenon, but it is only gaining ground as technology and generational values shift to incorporate more flexibility and digital integration.

It used to be that employers had all the power when it came to interviewing prospective employees for a position. Nowadays, the tables have turned and job candidates are doing the same. We live in a “social media generation” where online reviews are king.
