This week #TChat has star power! We get real about employee and employer brands with the creator of reality TV show “Top Recruiter”…
Brand humanization. That’s a mouthful. Sounds important, and it is. So, what is it, really, and why is it crucial in today’s world of work? That’s this week’s #TChat focus…
The employment picture is bleak. But that doesn’t mean that business opportunities are dead. Historically, startups have created more jobs than established companies, in good times and bad. So perhaps more of us should embrace entrepreneurship?
Today’s workforce has been rocked with massive changes. Job security is nonexistent, contingent workforce has ballooned, and among remaining employees, engagement has tanked. Does the rise of a free agent nation mean stronger relationships with employers?
Talent management analysts say, “The contingent workforce is now a permanent fixture, so many elements of talent management, recruiting and engagement are being extended to these mobile ‘free agents.'” Really? So how’s it workin for us?
What’s the real value of a professional endorsement – for individuals and prospective employers? As career networking sites like LinkedIn make it easier to “endorse” others, are commendations losing their meaning? The TalentCulture community speaks up…
Online endorsements can carry a lot of weight. But LinkedIn’s recent “endorsements” feature has the #TChat crowd asking: “What is the point of diminishing returns?” Let’s discuss!
How can you stay ahead of the curve in today’s job environment? After a week of TalentCulture community discussion, I’m reminded that the key is not how fast or how elegantly your career moves forward – it’s how many others you bring along for the ride.
The official word, that there’s economic uncertainty, is so 2012. We’re all cheerful and happy the economy produced 155,000 jobs last month (not completely, but we’re trying for some enthusiasm here). So have we turned the corner? Let’s talk about it this week at #TChat forums …
As a flood of recent veterans return from tours of duty in Iraq and Afghanistan, they bring specialized skills, professionalism and commitment to the workforce. So why are employers slow to hire those who’ve served in the military? What should recruiters and business leaders do to dispel myths and leverage this strong talent pool?
In a time of historic unemployment, with veterans returning from protracted wars, the TalentCulture community takes a hard look at how America can leverage the talents of those who have served our country…
Today’s workforce is multi-generational – but unlike 10 or even 20 years ago, age is not the primary determinant of management status. What does this generational mix mean for workplace culture – and how effective are new development models, such as reverse mentoring?
Social learning is everywhere around us – in short, bursty ideas that simultaneously draw us in and distract us from whatever we were intending to accomplish. It also brings us together across the digital divide. It’s time to embrace quality peer-to-peer exchange and shared insights…
It’s a tangled web we weave in this global economy, when companies and individuals, alike, are motivated to avoid costs of doing business. Convoluted tax codes and conflicting international regulations don’t help.
If it wasn’t for those pesky, messy, meddling humans, the world of work would actually work flawlessly. We’d work together happily and collaboratively, without deceit,
In today’s increasingly informal work environment, what’s the most appropriate want to bring new hires and contractors into the fold? How can you make a lasting first impression, and support new hires throughout their indoctrination?
Business is messy – and it’s only getting messier. So perhaps that’s where HR can truly make a difference today – to know the business, staff the business, teach the business and grow the business – all predicated on managing the messy yet mingled bad with the good. We can lead the way in helping business learn from its mistakes…
We’d thought we’d cause a rift in the space time continuum. Fortunately we didn’t. That’s because the amazing SocialHRCamp attendees in Vancouver BC and the
There’s a fun event today, Wed May 16th – A Live Social HR Camp being hosted from Vancouver, BC Canada and six other locales spread across
Successful talent strategy requires much more than filling open job requisitions. Look closer at your organizational culture — what does it say about your company?
Are assessments the key to hiring the best talent and retaining your best people? Good question. It’s not easy to answer, but the TalentCulture community is uniquely qualified to examine the pros and cons…
The diversity perception is much different in practice. The reality is, we discriminate; we stink at giving folks a fair shake, especially when they’re not
I’m not going to throw you any softballs. We did enough of that in last night’s #TChat. Instead, I’m going to throw the next pitch
