Preface. I don’t know what got into me. Without any planning of plot or characters, without any outline of key points chapter by chapter and, quite frankly, without knowing what the hell I was doing, I just started writing. The first chapter was posted 12-6-2016 (the finale on 12-30-2016), and then the fat really was in the fire. Except for our annual holiday letters to friends and family, field reports of our travels, a few blog posts about holiday traditions, and similar, I haven̵

Open door policies are pretty ubiquitous, but simply having the policy doesn't mean people will actually speak their minds. Your employees aren't telling you everything they should and it's costing you—$7,500 per conversation failure and seven work days—according to a new study led by best-selling authors Joseph Grenny and David Maxfield. That's what the lack of open communication costs you, and here's why: One in three employee say their culture does not promote or support holding crucial con

Technology impacts all of us personally in how we communicate, make purchases, plan travel, find love, discover a great restaurant, or get a ride across town. The disruption to how we work has been just as profound, and it has led to changes in the very nature of work and the skills that the HR Technology Leader of the future will need.

You are a recruiter. You talk to dozens of people every day, scan their resumes, hear all about their accomplishments. And your single biggest eye-roll moment (that also happens every day) is when candidates tell you how passionate, how strategic, and how driven they are. Like you haven’t heard these highly evocative and trustworthy descriptions before… ever.

But creativity is needed to solve the increasingly complex problems facing businesses. There are three main reasons people get creative: a need for something new. a need to communicate. a need to solve a problem. Creativity can produce small but noticeable changes, and sometimes it can lead to fundamentally disruptive and profound changes.

There are few employees who truly enjoy the idea of a annual performance review. The concept of being judged and criticised by those above them can send a shiver down anyone’s spine. As this can be a nerve-wracking time for employees, it is vital that those conducting the performance review do so in a comprehensive and positive way. The more in-depth, the more good that can come from it and certainly getting your feedback phrases right make a big difference.

Social recruiting. Candidate experience. Employer branding. There’s no doubt recruiting has seen a ton of changes and new ideas over the last decade. We know how important it is to build relationships with talent , especially passive candidates who have skills and rapport. Unfortunately, the wrong approach can be just as detrimental to engaging applicants as the more traditional elements like salary and job offer process.

Throughout my career, I’ve heard the lines “Sales is everyone’s job.” and “Recruiting is everyone’s job.” Meaning that, while organizations have sales departments and recruiting teams, there’s an expectation that everyone is working together to make sure the organization brings the maximum amount of revenue and attracts the best talent. Today’s reader note reminds me that everyone has another job.

Some leaders believe workplace culture is all about ensuring employees are constantly happy and satisfied. The truth is, while positive attitudes from employees is a great sign, there’s much more to it. In fact, an August Business Pulse Survey by The Alternative Board (TAB), What Makes A Culture Strong , shows 86 percent of business leaders agree company culture is a major contributor to the success of a company.

Companies have long thought of employee learning as something that happens in a classroom, delivered by a trainer away from the worksite, with content and activities selected by an instructional designer. Managers, as well as trainers, have come to believe that good training can solve any performance problem. This is antiquated thinking. The problem is not with the quality of training.

I don’t know that the title of this post is a surprise to anyone. Healthy individuals make for healthy employees. And healthy employees are productive, contributing to the organization’s goals (and bottom-line.). When we talk about “healthy”, we’re not just referring to physical health. Gallup has one of the best well-being definitions I’ve seen. It’s a great way to view being “healthy” and has five components.

In the process of writing Good to Great, Jim Collins’ team found that “great” companies have one thing in common: leaders who mentor others. This could be due to the benefits that mentorship has in terms of developing up-and-coming employees in the organization. However, while many senior managers will speak to the influence their mentors have had on their careers, many will also point to the role that mentoring others has played in their development.

By now, business owners have likely realized that the number of tax documents that the IRS requires companies to file is significant. There’s a reason that accountants responsible for corporate taxes make so much money. What is Form 940? Form 940 is the Employer’s Annual Federal Unemployment tax return, which was created after the Federal Unemployment Tax Act (FUTA) was passed.

The only reliable thing about human nature is that most of us cannot reliably predict the future. When given the opportunity to make important decisions, we often guess wrong. The concept of “uncertainty” is especially challenging for recruiters and HR professionals. We spend time and energy creating candidate pools and assessment models, and we devote hours to crafting a powerful and logical selection process; however, we forget that people are, for the most part, reliably awful.

Any time you create a program, it’s necessary to measure the results. Even the incredibly informal “Let’s do it and see what happens.” approach considers evaluation. But the measurement and evaluation portion of any program needs to be well thought out. Measure the wrong thing and the program can look like a failure (when it’s not) or vice versa. I’ve always been a fan of the Kirkpatrick model.

We’re going on well over fifteen years of thinking about employee engagement in organizations. And after years of surveying employees and rolling organizational results into a macro look at our country, the results today have not changed much from when we first started the analysis. What we know is companies that lose disengaged employees often see the negative impact of having lower profitability and higher recruiting expenses.

Though interviewing can be time-consuming for a hiring manager, its importance should never be underestimated. When your interview process is in peak condition, it enables you to get a 360-degree view of a candidate in a way that a resume simply doesn’t illustrate. From there, you’re better able to make a hiring decision that serves your company well in both the short- and long-term.
