Why Measure Human Resources

The HR Hub ·

2022/12/20

Will it make a difference if you can say "time-to-hire has improved 2.5% compared to this time last year"? Of course we can create more complex or creative metrics like 'retention rate per manager' or 'HR cost per employee'. Still... are they really helpful? The thing is, metrics measure the past. We track these things to make sure we are efficient and accountable. They rarely tell us about the strategic things we should be doing. This is what I spoke with David Simmonds about. He is the Chairman

Employee Wellness In The Workplace - This Isn't What...

The HR Hub ·

2022/12/13

Telling your employees to get well through nutrition, sleep and exercise and demanding they work extra every day is like telling them to eat cake and only giving them celery. You aren't serious. The work environment has a huge impact on wellbeing - particularly asking too much of people. Linda Duxbury is Canada's leading expert on employee wellbeing. She's done national studies involving tens of thousands of people. She has a lot to say on the subject and it does not include telling employees to

Soft Skills For Business: Or are they POWER Skills?

The HR Hub ·

2022/11/29

Soft skills is a misnomer. These skills are so critical to your success that 'power skills' is far more appropriate. The concept adds a lot of value to our careers in HR as well as the work we do! Focusing on the right power skills can help us create more effective organizations through skills development, identify the right high potential employees and create meaningful training programs. Susie Tomenchok teaches a course on power skills with the Intrapreneurship Academy. I have seen other

How To Implement Career Pathing or Ladders. Or Should...

The HR Hub ·

2022/11/22

We all want to move forward in our career path and sometimes that is up. Sometimes that is sideways, which is why 'lattice' is better term for how to view careers. I am definitely on the lattice path! 😅 Dianna Dempsey is an expert in career pathing/ladders/lattices. She gives us advice on how to do it although, truthfully, many times... it depends. We also talked about how to make use of the phrase in HR and development. Some tips: 👆We need to stop talking about 'moving UP the ladder' and

Reducing Dysfunction At Work - Tips & Strategies

The HR Hub ·

2022/11/15

🥱 Leadership is stagnating... they got successful and stopped learning. (Stagnation) 🤬 Structure and rules are four-letter words. (Chaos) 🙊 People in one department don't talk to people in another. (Silos) 🤷🏻‍♀️ "Work on what you think is important." (Permissive Leadership) These are all forms of dysfunction at work and usually aren't helpful to organization success. Often they start at the top with senior leadership! Which makes it that much harder to address. Anne Dranitsaris and Heather

HR Tech seems like a big decision. Get the wrong tech and you might be 'that person'. 😬 Get the right tech and you'll get more and better opportunities. Fortunately there are steps to success! I spoke with Phil Strazzulla of Select Software Reviews which specializes in HR tech.

Telling the Story of Your People Data

The HR Hub ·

2022/11/03

Presenting data is harder than it looks. Bar charts may not cut it. But, maybe in HR we have an advantage because our data is about people. We can tell stories! We can humanize the data! For example, change ' 20% of employees are planning on leaving within 6 months' to '1 out of 5 employees want to leave by Easter'. It's even better if, after that, you draw the line between the fact and the business impacts. Presenting people analytics was the subject of this week's episode with Kevin Campbell

When Employees Complain to HR

The HR Hub ·

2022/10/26

Employees complain to HR because they hope we can fix it. Sometimes it's more than hope... they KNOW it's our job to solve the problem. And it's easy for us to be drawn in. After all, HR is ALSO supposed to be empathetic and supportive and many of us buy into that idea. But stop. Yes you can and should hear the complaint and there likely is something on. But before you make the determination, get all the facts. And don't get drawn in personally! I loved this conversation with Heather

How To Identify Subtle Misconduct And What To Do

The HR Hub ·

2022/10/18

Microaggressions, putdowns, harassment... Sometimes they are obvious, but frequently they are not. What's often true is that they are difficult issues for an organization and they are dealt with badly or ignored. Which is also partly why only 30% of issues are reported. There must be a better way. Maysa Hawash, this week's guest is finding a better way. She has collaborated on software that will help the employees who don't want to speak up directly. It's called HearU and I think it's a great idea

Phil Strazzulla helps advance HR by sharing information about HR tech on his site, Select Software, and he gives all his advice to us for free!! And it's pretty darn good advice.

Workplace Microaggressions

The HR Hub ·

2022/10/04

Microaggressions are exhausting for the people who experience them. But what are they exactly and how do you know? And, for HR, what do you do??? Well they're subtle so, yah, it might not be easy to be certain. Honestly I struggle to identify what is a microaggression and what is truly an innocent comment. This week's guest, Emily Williams, suggests that if someone accuses you of microaggressions, you need to do some self-reflection. She specializes in supporting women of color and organizations

How to write a good job ad

2022/09/27

Write a kick ass job ad!! It matters! It can be tempting to think that your effort is pointless, after all it's an OCEAN of postings and they look the same. So it's even more important that your posting appeals to the ideal candidate. This episode with Shelley Billinghurst of the Recruitment Flex Podcast has very high utility: 🖊 There are websites to help all those awkward writers out there! 💡Write for the ideal candidate - not the hiring manager. 🙄 Don't make the process awkward unless

Good organizational structure can boost the effectiveness and performance of an organization as well as the lives of employees doing the work. But how do you get there? This episode talks about the steps to organization design. Before drawing lines and boxes you want to understand the organization's strategy and operating model. Strategy, in this context, includes: goals, the value proposition, core activities, product markets, etc. It's pretty clear that if you design with those things in mind

How to Use Job Boards

We don't all know how to use job boards properly. Frankly, everyone has jobs advertised so I wasn't even sure what made a job board. Steve Rothberg answered all my questions and the ones I didn't know I had! He's founder of College Recruiter and host of the High Volume Hiring Podcast. 🔢 First he clarified job boards: job boards have jobs from multiple employers. 📑 There's thousands of job boards because they are so easy to create.

Psychometric Testing Explained - And Applied

2022/09/07

It's very hard to predict if a person will succeed after they've been promoted. Sorry but your awesome interview, or the opinion of someone's manager is not reliable. Fortunately there is a more effective alternative! Psychometric testing may be one of the most valid and reliable tools to assess employees potential. The only down side is you need a psychologist to do it. I spoke with Marina Kolesnikova of Stefan, Fraser and Associates about how to make the best use of psychometric testing. She has a

Transformational Change Process

In many things 1-2% improvement is good enough especially year after year - you don't always have to do something dramatic. But when the future of your company is at stake or there's some other big factor at play, you need transformational change. I spoke with Jordan Ludwig of Stack'd Consulting which specializes in transformational change.

Psychometric Tests For Recruitment - The Science!

The HR Hub ·

2022/07/26

Psychometric testing, performed by trained psychologists, is the BEST predictor of job success of any recruitment or selection tool. It's a science and teaches you: 😄 Extraversion is not the same as social skill. It also isn't going to predict success in a job. 👯 Personality tests (think Myers Briggs) are a typology. They might help you understand people on your team but the results aren't correlated with job success. ⁉️ Interviews are, to some degree, a measure of intelligence. Intelligence IS
