Review most any “2022 HR Trends Report” and you will note that Diversity, Equity & Inclusion (DE & I) always makes an appearance when C-Suite Leaders and HR professionals name workplace topics that are top-of-mind. Organizations, more than ever, are assessing, defining, and building DE & I strategies with a realization they’re not taking a …

It’s much easier, of course, to repeat that which has come before by moving along a well-trod path where we study someone else’s “best practices,” replicate them, and believe …
I’ve long been intrigued with the tension that arises between “Big HR” and “Small HR.” That is to say the how and what HR professionals spend their time on at large organizations versus what they’re doing at SMBs.

This past weekend, while lazily channel surfing, I watched bits and pieces of Jurassic Park for (approximately) the 372nd time. Fortunately for me they were the snippets with lots and lots of Dr. Ian Malcom action (and I think we can all agree that Jeff Goldblum’s Dr. Ian Malcom, not the tribe of velociraptors, is …
We’re one of the fiercest advocates for the effective use of technology at work and in HR. Hell; our business is built on this very premise. We keep our fingers on the pulse of all things HR/work technology; existing, declining or new and emerging. We attend and speak at conferences, we contribute to articles, papers …
The company Zoom meeting has become a communication necessity for many over the last few months. “Can you move your camera up?” “I like that background!” “Can you turn your music off?” “I can’t hear you… …you’re on mute.” What better way to describe our current workforce communication strategies than a leader (or HR) unwittingly …
