We’re all familiar with the phrase, “the customer is always right.” Even though customers may not be right, they should be treated as such, regardless of the issue. Moments of outstanding customer service stick with us and turn us into lifelong customers. This is why the smartest companies treat their employees as their first customer and provide a competitive employee experience to create loyal employees.

I don't think I've ever worked anywhere that people didn't talk about politics. Of course, my jobs have always involved the news business, so that's pretty natural. But I know that for some people, discussing politics at work can be uncomfortable. Still, is there any way to avoid it? Check out this column I recently did for Gannett/USAToday. Most of us know that it's best to stay away from discussions about politics and religion at work.

'Why can''t everyone look like me, sound like me, think like me, act like me, dream like me, talk like me, work like me, lead like me, worship like me, celebrate like me, argue like me, agree like me, and just be like me ? Simple. Because the world isn''t made up of a bunch of people named "me." The world is made up of billions of different people, but they all have one thing in common.

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.

'Pride is the ultimate double-edged sword. It helps us stay strong in the face of adversity, and it sends us right to the bottom of the pit when we cling too tightly. What an odd combination. One moment we rejoice at the end of a long project that launches successfully. Another moment has us so stubborn that we can not even see even the most obvious choices in front of us.

More or less? Employee engagement is myopically focused on more and has a major lacuna to the power of less. We are told that we need more productivity, more relationships, more training, and more discretionary effort. Perhaps we need don’t need more effort we need effort-less. Powerful engagement is seeded by less not more. Don’t pile on programs, initiatives, and tasks.

People are promoted to lead others based on their seniority in technical areas. Others become managers after getting a management degree from a b-school that never taught them the fundamentals of dealing with people. They end up putting off people through their behavior and set a wrong example for their subordinates to follow. In a business setting, the cost of having such leaders is invisible, but often huge.

'Venturing down the path of implementing a 360-degree feedback process for performance assessments or development purposes? Better detect the hidden land mines before charging ahead. The process you hope will bring added value to the business may erupt as a destroyer of employee engagement. For companies that are looking for more complete insight into their employees’ performance, gathering feedback from a broad range of perspectives seems to make sense.

Some athletes are simply not destined to get the gold. Women have a record-breaking presence in the Olympics this year – every nation sporting women on their teams for the first time in history and more women than men on the U.S. team. But when I look at the participation stats across the other sectors of society, I’m tempted to wonder what it will take for us to represent our population accurately – as something other than 15% or lower (Fortune 500 CEOs include about 3% women)
