The CEO of SHRM is retiring. What’s SHRM? It’s the AARP of HR professionals. They are an association who do commercials on CNN and tell everybody about how great it is to work in HR. And, like the people AARP who want us to believe that being an old lady is empowering, they are lying to us. (Who gets excited about turning 50? Not many people except those who think, yeah, the alternative is death.

Written by: Elizabeth Capece. A New Year calls for many changes in our lives, and if you’re like me, one change that’s at the top of your list is reorganizing your closet. Having to decide between tossing, keeping and donating is something we all do at some point because time marches on and clothing goes out of style, fades, doesn’t fit anymore, or may no longer be practical if you’ve moved to a different climate.

When I was younger, I would ask my mother questions and if she didn’t give me the answers I was looking for, I’d go ask my father. I’m sure that I’m not alone in using that tactic. When I started in human resources, I discovered that employees sometimes do the same thing. They ask one supervisor and if they didn’t get the answers they were looking for, they’d ask another supervisor.

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.

What is Organizational Drag. Have you ever noticed that the more people who go to a meeting, the longer the meeting will run? And it’s not a result of bringing together a group of heavy talkers; it’s simply that adding more people adds more pad time, moments when someone needs extra clarification, has to run to the restroom, or simply contributes to the conversation.

The Operations VP starts with a dashboard clearly indicating improved operational efficiency, productivity gains and cost savings for the quarter, as well as projections for the remainder of the year.

Two years ago I wrote an article that has been incredibly popular about how to learn HR for free. Today I’m updating that article here with new information and additional sources, rounding it out at just over 3,000 words–no small task! This is for anyone in HR, not just those starting out their careers, because we can all use some help now and again with sharpening our skills and knowledge across the many subdomains of HR.

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.

According to Deloitte’s recent Global Human Capital Trends survey, 82 percent of executives surveyed believe that culture is a potential competitive advantage. That is, when culture is done right, it can drive performance and productivity within an organization and act as a secret weapon. However, based on our experience working with hundreds of successful companies across industries, we’ve seen how hard it is to recognize that it’s time for organizational culture change.

By: Andrew Sykes. Founder & President, Habits at Work. In our previous blog , we explored how a company’s destiny is intimately linked to the Pivotal and Work Habits that its employees practice. Employers have traditionally been inattentive to the design of employee habits, focusing instead on results produced. While this is a reasonable approach, employers have missed the opportunity to create environments that makes it easy for employees to practice both Pivotal and Work habits, which prov

It’s part of the conventional wisdom that millennials are the most diverse and globally-oriented generation in American history. They were raised to seek out international opportunities, like study abroad or simply traveling. A global economy has been the status quo for their entire lives, and the importance of approaching their education and careers have left a lasting impression.

We’ve answered a lot of questions about the workplace, but never one like this. Hi Sharlyn, I really enjoy your blog. I’m hoping you can provide me with some advice. One of my employees is having a sexual relationship with my boss, our department vice president. She told me about the affair a year ago, and I suspect it is still going on. I haven’t disclosed the relationship to human resources because I don’t want to betray her trust.

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.

There’s high probability that the 28th January will likely pass rather quietly for most of the planet with little notice of it being Serendipity Day , arguably the most significant day in the History of Man. Though serendipitous events have accompanied our journey through history, these events went usually nameless, being attributed to the winds of luck and the fate.

The workplace needs continuous feedback more than ever. According to Gallup, only 17 percent of millennials receive meaningful feedback and 19 percent receive feedback on a routine basis. One reason such a small percentage of employees receive feedback is the perception that performance management is a time-consuming process. We empathize with managers who attempt to balance their time between giving guidance to their direct reports, while managing the team’s overall direction and vision.

To the chagrin of employers everywhere, there is no such thing as a lifetime work contract. Employees can and do transfer from job to job, employer to employer, with little remorse for what they leave behind. Regardless of age, most employees remain in a single position for just 4.6 years, and Millennials give a job just two years before finding another opportunity.

Creativity can be a scary thing for many workplaces because it pits tried-and-true methods against something new. 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.
