As the child of alcoholics, I grew up intimately acquainted with dysfunctional family dynamics and their impacts on me. I've spent a lifetime trying to overcome these effects, as a matter of fact. . The other day, I was talking with a friend about her dysfunctional workplace and for some reason I was reminded of how I felt in my family. It hit me how, even as adults, we can be pulled into the dysfunction of the workplace as surely as we may have felt it in our families. .

'Dave Ryan and I were talking about possible next Project Social topics and I ambitiously suggested, ‘ HR’s role in defining a high-performing organization.’ Dave’s response: ‘Hmmmmmn… yeah, that’s one topic.’ (We’ll just call that one Plan B.) So we pared it down to one aspect of high performing organizations, something that all HPOs have: good workforce intelligence, not to be confused with an intelligent workforce.

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.

When I was in junior high, there were these things called "slam books." These were notebooks that were passed around anonymously with a different person's name on each page. On each page, you could write -- good or bad -- what you thought of that person and remain anonymous. To this day, I can remember one especially hurtful comment written on my page.

They can also tarnish your sterling reputation and strain the bottom line if ignored. Rewarding and recognizing employees is an easy way to encourage high levels of performance.

As an employer, you want to protect your employees from workplace violence or other unsafe situations. So naturally you decide to conduct routine background checks on prospective employees to ensure you don’t hire someone with an unsavory past. But it isn’t that easy.

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.
