Days spent with position unfilled: 45. Hours spent reviewing 200 resumes: Feels like forever. Hours spent re-reviewing the 50 or so you didn’t toss straight in the bin: Too many to count. Hours spent setting up interviews with ten semi-finalists: Don’t care anymore as long as they show up. Hours spent on interviews: It feels like one long interview.

We often talk about the employee lifecycle , the “recruit to retire” journey of an individual through multiple human capital processes. But the employee lifecycle really is a finite process.

From the cradle to the grave, life hands us stressful situations — so much so that we should consider stress to be an integral part of living a full life, rather than a nuisance to be avoided at all costs. Rather than ignoring stress, it can be healthier and even more productive to harness the energy that such trials create and direct it towards a more successful outcome.

Showing gratitude is a powerful way to build relationships and establish a positive workplace culture, and we’re never more aware of that fact than during the week of Thanksgiving. Everywhere you turn, there’s an opportunity to reflect on what you have and how grateful you are to have it, and these emotions usually spill out on a peer-to-peer level: managers appreciate employees, employees appreciate co-workers, and so on.

One of the things I’m most passionate about as a long-time HR professional is the progression of our practice. We suffer from quite a bit of bad press and misperception as an overall group, that we’re the people in the company who couldn’t cut it in other lines of business and that we’re dragging our companies behind. Within this push to exceed expectations to outrun this negative perception is a call to action to evolve our way of thinking.
