HR Bartender

I loved this Harvard Business Review white paper by Teresa Amabile titled, “ In Pursuit of Everyday Creativity ”. From a business context, we’re constantly focused on creativity and innovation. We place value on it. My takeaway from the white paper is that we tend to label people as “creative” versus looking at a creative process that anyone could use successfully.

Why Having HR Measurements is No Longer Enough to Grow HR's Strategic Role

Cornerstone On Demand

When Google Analytics debuted in 2005, the ability to look under the hood, and see who was viewing your website (and for how long), was all at once foreign and exciting.

A common trap with metrics is believing that their mere existence is strategic.

Want Your Recruitment CRM to Be Effective? Focus on Relationship Building

Cornerstone On Demand

While applicant tracking systems (ATS) have enabled companies to organize applicants in one system, magnified reach from digital advertising and job boards have created other challenges. In our effort to get more applicants, we've moved away from quality—HR teams simply can't evaluate 250 applications per job posting. Because of this, relationship building between company and candidate is often lost.
