Once you’ve learned why your employees leave, how do you start fixing the problem? One of the common turnover causes we see from exiting employees is the balance of workload. Work redesign is a workplace flexibility initiative that can help reduce employee turnover. Our ExitRight® exit interview software has the capability to take note of both unbalanced workloads and the fact that new techniques in the workplace don’t always relieve the strain.

With unemployment rates at historic lows , organizations have to not only think about filling open requisitions, they also have to develop a long-term approach to staffing. Frankly, if an organization waits until they have an opening before they start strategizing their sources, it will be too late. The recruiting team will always be taking a reactionary approach to staffing. Workforce planning is about developing a proactive approach to talent acquisition.

Have you noticed that over the past year, conversations around major incidents of unconscious bias and sexual harassment have almost always included learning as part of the solution? It's more important than ever to create a culture of learning within our workplaces, because only through a culture of learning can we adopt new mindsets, behaviors and skills that make workplaces inclusive for everyone. And who better than learning practitioners to lead this charge within their organizations?

Your paid time off policy only works if people actually get to use their vacation days. It’s even better if they get to take them when they want to. Generally, that means during the summer. But what do you do if you’re already short-staffed? It can kill morale if you say “no” to people’s vacation requests, and you could become even more short-staffed if team members call out sick or quit for greener pastures.

A couple of weeks ago, the Society for Human Resource Management (SHRM) held its annual conference in Chicago. Over 22,000 human resources professionals were in attendance. It was an exciting and extremely educational event. It was also impossible to take in everything that the event has to offer. It’s just huge! So, I wanted to share just a few of the things I found along the way. I’ve mentioned before that certified professionals can earn recertification credits by reading books.

As back-office functions go, tracking employee hours can sometimes get overlooked. This is especially true for many new businesses with small teams. But the issue of time theft, no matter how big your business, is anything but small. Even a single hour of padding on each employee time card per month can cost a business thousands of dollars a year.

Can partnering with an external Recruitment Process Outsourcing (RPO) provider be a game changer for winning the race for top talent? According to Aberdeen research, that just might be the case. In a recent study, Aberdeen found that nearly 60% of organizations handle recruitment internally. And those that handle recruitment internally are 11% more likely to understand what is causing their skills gaps, compared to those that engage with an RPO partner.

Preparing to increase headcount at a large organization is like comparing the cost of bread at different supermarkets: At your regular neighborhood store, a loaf might cost $2.28, but at a high-end store, a loaf might cost $3.98. In a similar way, wages for workers with the same title can vary dramatically based on location.

The digital transformation has had a massive impact on the role of nearly every employee, and even the CHRO is not immune. A CHRO at the top of his or her game is a close confidante of the CEO and therefore has to think about many of the same things that a CEO does. To empower her team to make personnel decisions that are in line with the CEO's business strategy, the CHRO must be knowledgeable, confident and well-versed in the technological changes that are driving today's workforce.

Type “leadership” into the search bar on Amazon and prepare to sift through more than 70,000 titles. And that’s just books! Countless more articles, theses, and treatises on the topic have been written by savants from Cicero to Machiavelli to Lincoln. Needless to say, there’s a lot to say. Okay, now search for “leadership development.” Way to go, you’ve winnowed it down to only 20,000 books (or so).

Are new communication tools actually increasing productivity or are they just wasting everyone’s time? This is a question many organizations are beginning to ask themselves. Technology allows society to accomplish tasks that would otherwise be impossible. It’s safe to say it has helped humans improve productivity. However, emerging technology could end up being a hinderance or a crutch, not a solution.

Last month, I spoke with more than 1,400 employees who were afraid that the culture at their company, which had been carefully cultivated for years, was about to change. Like many companies who are part – or become part – of an enterprise parent company, this is a very real fear. In fact, when I showed those same employees a slide of the parent company’s cultural behaviors, there were both similarities and differences between our two lists. But these were just words on a page.

With companies increasingly hiring workers for specific tasks and projects, the gig economy is creeping up on the American workforce. Intuit estimates that gig workers now represent 34 percent of the workforce , and that number will grow to about 43 percent by 2020. What's more, the gig economy mindset is driving organizations to think differently about how they hire not only for project-based workers, but also for full time positions.
