You’ve decided that it makes sense to think of your HR team as a business. You’ve done your due diligence and asked your customers about their needs, and solicited feedback on your products and services and the value they add to the business. Now, you have a messy piece of qualitative research. What's next? It's time to look at the research as an HR team and think collectively.

The hiring process can be nerve-wracking for candidates. They can wait weeks to hear back about jobs, if at all. Good employers make the hiring process as easy on candidates as possible , and this means more than creating automatic forms. It means developing a more personal experience from start to finish. Make yourself a better employer, find better candidates, hire better employees by keeping these few things in mind.

HR Compliance is like a giant game of whack-a-mole. Once you think your company is compliant with all policies and procedures documented and in place, there’s a new or amended law, regulation, or final rule that pops up landing you back at ‘start.’ There are shifts, interpretations, and balancing acts to understanding compliance changes. Keeping up is not easy and it’s very time consuming.

Job titles are having a moment. Business analysts call themselves “data wranglers." Marketers are “brand defenders" and “growth hackers." Salespeople are “customer success managers,” and the list goes on. Human resources professions are no exception to this new-title takeover — and for good reason. HR roles are drastically different from what they were even 10 years ago, thanks to remote workforces, digitally savvy job applicants and constant co

In this space, we are uniquely (and sometimes falsely) positioned between upper management and frontline employees. It’s not your job to play mediator between disgruntled employees and frustrated managers, but it likely feels like it. Your role in the grand scheme of organizational needs is much larger. HR simply can’t make everyone happy; to compensate, it’s imperative to balance immediate and delayed needs throughout the company to develop employees and leadership appropriately.

There's no lack of studies linking gender balance with increased performance, innovation and creativity in organizations. Despite the mounting evidence in favor of diversity, many organizations still fail to appropriately address gender parity in the workplace.

We all work long, hard hours. And that hard work can sometimes go without much recognition or appreciation. But it’s important to reward your employees for a job well done. Some surveys have shown that employee recognition has a direct correlation to employee satisfaction, and satisfied employees do better work and are less inclined to leave. Recognition makes employees feel appreciated : you're showing your peer, manager or direct report that his or her work matters.

Exempt and non-exempt are two words that most employers have heard of at least once. And the reason is because all employees are either exempt or non-exempt. There is no middle ground between the two terms, which makes understanding the differences between the two a little easier. The Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA) mandates that employers classify any job —current and new—as being exempt or non-exempt.

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.

When looking for the best candidate for an open position, do you focus on hard skills, or soft skills and cultural fit ? Which one is more important? Although skills and experience are still important in recruiting, hiring professionals are giving cultural fit an increasing amount of weight when selecting candidates.

Doing a company retreat is similar to doing an employee review : If you actually care about the results, you’ll have a great one. But if you’re going to take valuable feedback and fail to act on it, you’ll spend lots of money and yield few results.
