'This is another post in the occasional series on healthcare and human resources (#HealthcareHR.) Today''s post focuses on taking a bold step in order to create a pro-employee culture. I find it interesting that in one of the most stressful industries, if not the most stressful, the role of employee ombudsman is not widely used in healthcare settings.

How are you managing employee engagement for managers? On a recent flight from Winnipeg to Toronto I refreshed my previous reading and notes of Henry Mintzberg’s 2009 book, Managing. He is truly a Canadian and global treasure in management thinking. Over the past 4 or 5 years there has been a big uptake on helping managers improve employee engagement.

'As I have written several times on this blog and elsewhere , I appreciate the SHRM Foundation. Their products and work are outstanding. One of the videos from the SHRM Foundation I used to show in my HR class was entitled "HR Heroes: What it means to be a Strategic HR Leader in the 21st Century" (later renamed HR Role Models) It featured Libby Sartain and others discussing, as the title suggests, strategic leadership at both high-tech and low-tech companies.

One of the most stressful situations to face in the workplace is a conflict with a co-worker. Whether it’s a long-standing feud that you can’t even recall how it began or a recent spat that has made work tense and miserable for you, not getting along in a civil manner with colleagues is often painful. You may wrestle with how to resolve the conflict.
Speaker: Ann Meyers Piccirillo
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.

'"You have to manage your personal brand." "How do you measure your influence ?" "You need to make an impact!" "What is your career plan?" "Which goals are you setting up for 2013?" "Which new social networks are you active on?" "Should I start a blog? On what? When should I post?" "Who should I follow, friend, connect with, or add?" Someone please make it stop.I think I''m going to be sick.

I've written a lot about how to craft emails that get the attention of key people, but I was taken aback when I learned of a study that says it could be your name that determines whether you get a response or not. Read this latest column I did for Gannett/USA Today. Could someone named Jamal have more difficulty getting help from a mentor or attention from a higher-up than someone named Brad?

'“Wherever men and women are persecuted because of their race, religion, or political views, that place must - at that moment - become the center of the universe.” - Elie Wiesel Take a moment and think about the issues that you''ve known about for some time but just haven''t taken action on yet. Whether those issues are blatant, subtle, intentional or not; would you perhaps identify some part, or someone, in your organization that should become the center of your workplace universe ?

I recently heard someone saying, “ Project management is just science. ” “Do I agree?” I asked myself. Here is what I think: Project management is both science and art, but it is the art of project management that makes great project managers. It is science because there are essential processes and elements that make up project management (e.g. scope, time, cost, quality etc.

A reader recently asked me a pointed question: “I’ve read your work on creating user habits. It’s all well and good for getting people to do things, like using an app on their iPhone, but I’ve got a bigger problem. How do I get people to do things they don’t want to do?” Taken aback by the directness and potentially immoral implications of his question, my gut reaction was to say, “You can’t and shouldn’t!

I once read a story of a boy who found a bag full of dried clay balls when he was playing in the field. Not sure about what to do with them, he started throwing them in the pond to enjoy the ripples. Just then, he dropped one of the balls and saw a glittering diamond inside the ball. When he opened remaining balls, he found more diamonds. He regretted for the ones he threw.

'I’ll also be speaking about social media at SHRM’s annual conference in Chicago next Summer. Actually, my session won’t just be about social media, but all of the various elements of an organisation that help us develop its social capability. Social media is the newest of these enablers, and in some situations it’s likely to be the most important, but many of the other tools we have at our disposal have the potential to be even more impactful.

Motivation: Money, Meaning or Recognition. Doing something meaningful is more important than money or recognition to your employees. 29% of respondents said that doing something meaningful was the most motivating thing about work. Money motivated 25%, and recognition 17%. Commentary. Although meaning trumped money it is probably best to hedge our bets by attending to the meaning, money, and recognition at work.
