These days, most major HRTech vendors offer some form of automated ‘flight risk analysis.’ Imagine what a competitor might do if they could change your basic retention policy by changing the data that drives your intelligent tools. Machines are significantly easier to fool than people. The machine always assumes that the data is clean. It rarely has the sense or capacity to question data quality.

One of the most common complaints from business owners is a lack of employee loyalty. The turnover rate is too damn high. The data suggests they’re right. A study from the Work Institute estimated that 42 million — one in four, employees — left their jobs in 2018. Yet, the same study suggests that nearly 77% of turnover could be prevented by employers.

“Now we are entering a new age of discovery. Yes, candidates are still discovering job sites via search engines – but Google has ‘regularized’ the job posting, punishing those that don’t follow their schema, and rewarding those that do.” – Jeff Dickey-Chasins. Over three-quarters of job seekers typically start their job search on a search engine – usually Google – or a job search engine , such as Indeed or Adzuna.

The IKEA Effect is a cognitive bias that describes a fascinating human behavior. The effect was first identified and described in the Journal of Consumer Psychology by Michael Norton, Daniel Mochon, and Dan Ariely in their article, The IKEA effect: When labor leads to love. The basic premise is that when a person plays a partial role in building a product, they tend to assign a disproportionally higher value to the completed product.

It’s well understood that automation will revolutionize work , and that the effects of automation will not be as simple as replacing the human workers in a job. Instead, work will be “perpetually upgraded,” as automation steadily changes how the underlying tasks in a job are accomplished. Work is “reinvented,” typically creating new jobs that comprise unprecedented combinations of human and automated work.

Leadership isn’t about authority. Contrary to what most believe, leadership is an opportunity to serve and empower others. By creating the space for people to discover their natural talents, those at the top can help to develop leadership strengths on every level. Unfortunately, companies often fall short of actually utilizing the leadership strengths of their people because they aren’t taking the time to discern their personal talents.

So, if you’re suspecting that there’s something wrong with your workplace, the odds are good that one or more of your colleagues feel like they work in a hostile environment. If this is the case, you’ll want to act as fast as possible to find the cure, and to prevent it altogether in the future, before employees become irreversibly unproductive or go down the legal road.

Recruitment marketing is exactly what it sounds like. It erases some of the boundaries between your company’s desire to sell products and services and your efforts to find and recruit promising talent. There’s always going to be a place for product placement as well as traditional job listings, though — so why explore this concept? What are the benefits?

Here’s a bit of irony: When we think of health care we don’t often think of health or wellness; we think of insurance to help us cope with illness and injury. We also think of the process of dealing with those benefits — which on many occasions will include wait times, filling out forms, juggling in-network and out-of-network providers, waiting for claims to be processed, the limitations of coverage and administrative complexity.

All companies can custom-design maternity leave benefits as a tactic to compete with larger firms in attracting and retaining talent while also creating a great company culture. Under FMLA, employers with 50 or more employees must provide new and adoptive moms up to 12 weeks to care for themselves and their infant. (Also, check your state laws on maternity leave.).

China Gorman measures the progress of CEOs owning talent and culture-related progress in their organizations. In 2013 I wrote a pretty popular piece on my blog titled, Memo to HR.

Recently, I was looking at that post and reviewing the list of signs that a CEO was becoming a talent champion (although I didn’t label it that then), and thinking that the progr
