I’ve written a lot about Millennials and the massive impact they are having on the future of work. The largest generation in today’s workforce, they are the generation perfectly matched to ride the wave of digital technology and mobility that came of age more or less at the same time they did, and they’ve helped turn traditional business practices on its ear.

"Imagine that in 10 years you don't do anything like you do today," says Bodell. "Imagine your company doesn't even sell the products and services that are your current bread and butter.

Most recruiting done today is inbound recruiting. This is organizations posting jobs everywhere, people seeing these jobs and then applying. These candidates are coming ‘inbound’ to you in some form or fashion – into your ATS, into your email, showing up at your front door, whatever it takes for them to find you. Outbound, then, is the opposite.

Research shows only about 1 in 10 people possess the traits needed to be a good manager. Couple that with the fact that one of the most important decisions a company can make is selecting its managers, and they get it wrong 82% of the time, and you have yourself a recipe for talent management disaster.

Louis Salamone is CFO at CityMD, a company that’s disrupting the urgent care business. Technology plays a strong role in that disruption. For example, CityMD built a state-of-the-art referral system that connects patients with in-network physicians for follow-up care—all part of its mission of “serving kindness.” To support its rapid expansion and growth, CityMD chose Workday for its financial management, human capital management, and payroll needs.

In May 2016, wildfire broke out in Wood Buffalo Municipal District near the City of Fort McMurray, Alberta, Canada and became possibly the costliest disaster in Canadian history. As the fire grew to nearly 2,000 square miles (approximately 590,000 hectares) in size, more than 80,000 residents were forced to evacuate. The City of Edmonton responded to this unmatched crisis by putting “all hands on deck.”.

I consider the Foundation to be one of SHRM’s best kept secrets. Their mission is human resources research and education.

The Rio Olympics took place in front of 78,000 live spectators and was watched by well over 33.4 million viewers on NBC. As usual, the games have been a showcase for the most talented athletes from scores of countries competing in a plethora of events, some of which we only get to see televised every four years (equestrian dressage anyone?). NBC paid over $1 billion dollars for broadcasting rights, and whether they would be able to get maximum return on this investment has been a discussion poi

SaaS startups are always seeking ways to improve the product experience for their customers. They want their products to be best-in-class solutions that their customers can’t live without and use habitually. But habits are not formed arbitrarily.

We’ve probably all heard the axiom that 10,000 hours of practice is what it takes to be world-class at something (speaking, skiing, dancing, etc.) But what if that has been misquoted all these years? A new book called Peak is out , and it’s a look at what it takes to get to a world-class performance level. The author was the originator of the study years ago that confirmed the 10,000 hour mark, but he is very careful to point out that it doesn’t simply mean doing the thing for

By Derek Irvine. Recognize This! – Less pure output and more holistic wellbeing, productivity is driven by the employee experience and technologies that can give leaders greater insight. Last week, I wrote about worker productivity from the perspective of economists and the figures from the Bureau of Labor Statistics. In that post, a decline in productivity appears to reflect deep transformations in the employee experience , alongside lower levels of technology and people investments.

Great workers don’t necessarily make for great remote workers. Knowing how to manage your time and stay accountable completely independent of an office or manager close-by, are vital skills that employees in an office don’t necessarily have to master. Before hiring a remote worker who will be operating from a distance, you need to look closely at their communication skills, work ethic, and time management skills.

[link] I’m just a little bit excited today. I am part of a set of new hosts joining the HR Happy Hour Podcast Network with a new show, We’re Only Human. It’s a play on words and gives multiple meanings, because for starters, despite the pressure on us as HR leaders, we’re still only human. It also gives me a chance to talk about how, despite automation and other factors, we need to be looking at our people as human beings with needs and desires, not simply data points or

Company culture makes a lot of headlines as a leadership issue. “If my CEO would only prioritize culture during the next all-hands meeting, the problem of company culture would be solved once and for all,” the story goes. But while the CEO’s role in company culture is important (and we’ll get to that shortly), this top-down approach to defining and implementing culture is just about as wrong as it gets.

Jocelyne led a team of software developers who knew each other quite well and had worked together for years. Some group members were extroverted, while others were less so. Todd, a relatively new member, was quite introverted. Sensing a growing unease between those who were more vocal and those who tended to be quiet, Jocelyne realized that she had to change the group’s communication patterns.
