Remember the letter last month from the person whose company accountant was nitpicking his travel expenses in the most ridiculous way ? If you didn’t read the comments, you missed this insane detail from the letter writer: “Actual comment at the last checkin with Bob, regarding a ~$12 tab at Chipotle: ‘Ordering extra guacamole is wasteful of member dues.'” Here’s the update.

I know a ton of HR Pros right now who have been charged by their organizations to go out and “Diversify” their workforce. By “Diversify”, I’m not talking about diversity of thought, but to recruit a more diverse workforce in terms of ethnic, gender and racial diversity. Clearly, by bringing in more individuals from underrepresented groups in your workforce, you’ll expand the “thought diversification”, but for those HR Pros in the trenches and sitt

I’ve said on multiple occasions that a manager’s job is to hire and train their replacement. Not only does that allow managers time to step away from their devices and take a vacation, but it allows them time to develop themselves. The key to hiring and training your replacement is delegation. It’s knowing what to delegate and when. Managers need to create a connection between learning, goals, performance, and the business.

High-tech companies are known to offer competitive financial rewards and employee recognition programs to encourage and motivate employees to keep delivering high quality work. To some extent these performance management programs have been effective. For example, eCard Shack’s infographic reveals that young and inexperienced employees across high-tech companies like Facebook, Google, and Apple experience high levels of job satisfaction, mainly as a result of being highly paid.

I stumbled across an article recently in Training Magazine about “ Creating a Continuous Learning Culture ”. We’ve talked before about self-learning being a competency that individuals should develop. The thing I found interesting in the article was the focus on daily rituals. The idea being that employees should learn how to develop daily rituals that will help with their learning.

Protecting customer and employee data should be at the top of every major corporation's priority list. Your customer and employee trust depends on it. So, if you are a global company with offices, employees or customers in the EU then you should pay close attention to the new centralized, formal rules that now apply to any EU member countries, called the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR).

I know I need to focus on engagement and our HR strategy. But how can I do that when some of our employees don’t even have homes to go home to? When I had this conversation with an HR leader based in Houston just after the hurricane had unleashed flooding on the state, I had to think carefully about what I was going to recommend. In the end, what I told this woman was the same thing I will recommend today in more detail.

A version of this article was originally published on the SmashFly blog. It's no longer enough to be a great company—your company must be known as a great place to work. That's bigger than your own Employee Value Proposition (EVP) and what you say on your career site and what your leadership thinks about your culture. It's a blend of perception, reality, reputation and delivering on promises.

We expect that ICE will be conducting record numbers of worksite enforcement investigations, criminal prosecutions and audits for inspections and administrative fees. These ICE audits and investigations can result in employers having to settle technical violations for administrative shortcomings, even if they do not have an undocumented worker on payroll.

I received the highlights from a new CareerBuilder study this week and they made me laugh for two reasons. First, because some of these ideas are actually pretty good, and second, because whoever wrote the press release of the data analysis is a bit off the mark. The gist of the research was this: people are looking for jobs (no surprise there) and some of them are doing interesting, strange, or downright weird things to try and stand out from the crowd.
