When I was 14 years old, my dad quit his job. It was a job he’d had since I was born. He didn’t quit because he’d accepted another job. He quit because his boss asked him to compromise his integrity. Let me explain. As a cattle buyer, my dad’s customers were the farmers and ranchers who lived within driving distance of our home.

Recently the president of a non-profit organization reached out to ask if I would join his board.

Wanting to minimize confrontation, many managers give "meets expectations" scores to underachievers or workers with records of poor behavior. This documentation can come back to haunt managers should the organization later look to terminate the worker's employment.

I sometimes forget that some of you have been reading the blog for a long time (maybe the entire 10+ years it’s been going!) while others have just found it. It’s easy to run across something I’ve written recently and think that I have it all together and always have, but that’s certainly not the case. I started this blog when I was getting my first HR job because I wanted to share with others what I was learning and how to improve ourselves as HR pros.

When employees chronically miss work without notice, or when absenteeism suddenly spikes in part of your workforce, it can lead to a series of kneejerk reactions, questions, and concerns. Is there something else going on? Are employees disengaged? What’s really happening here? And while some people might make assumptions about what employee absenteeism is saying, the data, including information from your time & attendance software, might tell a different story.
It’s the Thursday “ask the readers” question. A reader writes: I recently left a long-term job that I was pretty happy in, but had very limited earning potential and no real opportunity for growth.

So, why is company culture important? We inherently understand why a company’s culture is valuable, sure. It sets up the rules, procedures and best practices for a place where you spend 40-50 hours a week, and it guides employees on how to make decisions, how to deal with customers and more.

A reader writes: I was wondering if you had any advice for dealing with a boss who really digs in whenever a mistake is made. It’s not enough to acknowledge responsibility and to promise you won’t make the same mistake again; he wants to know “why” you made the mistake in the first place.
