Going from one reality to another frequently presents challenges. Women returning to work after an absence (most notably after having children), experience a unique set of challenges. I’m coining the manifestation of these challenges “Return to Work Syndrome.”.

In 1964, in a farsighted Harvard Business Review article entitled, “Democracy Is Inevitable,” Warren Bennis and Philip Slater argued that organizational democracy and more freedom would be the trend in both the workplace and in the world because it is the most efficient system in times of unrelenting change. They were right. Today, we live in a time defined by unprecedented demands for participation, collaboration , and inclusion.

Yes, I’ll admit it. I enjoy playing Pokemon GO. For those of you who aren’t familiar with the game. Pokemon GO is an augmented reality game released in 2016. The game involves locating and catching ‘creatures’ (aka Pokemon). Once you catch them, then you use them in battles, etc. The game was awarded the Guinness World Record for most revenue generated by a mobile game and hundreds of millions of people play the game globally.

For companies with seasonal high-volume recruiting needs, every year can seem like “déjà vu all over again.” Whether it’s hiring for open enrollment, tax time, or the holiday season, the pressure to find a large number of qualified candidates in a short span of time never goes away. In fact, it’s gotten even more challenging in recent years, as unemployment rates hover around historic lows and the number of jobs added increases. peshkov / iStock / Getty Images Plus.

In today’s dynamic work landscape, where the lines between personal and professional life blur, understanding the intricate interplay between social determinants of health (SDoH) and emotional wellbeing is paramount. Employers must acknowledge that the whole person comes to work and every aspect of a person’s personal and professional life, especially their mental health, comes with them.

Quoting Ralph Waldo Emerson, "Life is a journey, not a destination," suggests that life is more about the individual experiences than the result. The same can be said about the candidate journey and the hiring process. Gone are the days when companies could automate three to five page paper employment applications and have candidates jump through many hoops.

While it’s true that the C-suite bears considerable responsibility for providing strategic direction for any business, there can be many benefits to including other individuals in company decision-making activities. In fact , one research study found that teams that engage in inclusive decision-making make better business decisions 87 percent of the time, and they also make decisions faster and with fewer meetings.

Few things are predictable in business. Shop owners and proprietors can’t be sure whether a shipment of goods will arrive on time before a big sale, whether revenues will meet the projected goal by year’s end, or if employees will be available to work on a moment’s notice due to a last-minute scheduling change. For large and small enterprises, the last scenario – irregular or unstable shift scheduling – can be a major cause of anxiety for both managers and workers.

You know how important the customer experience is to you personally, and to your business: Research shows it's a major competitive differentiator. A good customer experience attracts loyal, repeat customers—for instance, I always buy Lucky Brand Jeans because I have never had a bad experience with them (and my jeans always fit). A bad customer experience is just bad for business and customers have less and less tolerance for it.

Is time theft an issue for your company? If it was, how would you know? If you think that employee theft only happens in the office supply cabinet, think again. Every day, employees across the country take part in time clock fraud—whether inadvertently or intentionally. And when they do, employers are left paying them for unworked hours. As many as 75% of companies have time “stolen” from under their noses, according to an American Payroll Association (APA) study.

Employee burnout is becoming a common affliction in organizations across the country. With 24 hour access to email, many employees continue to think about and access work long after the workday has finished. This continuous connection to their job leads many professionals to bring their work home with them, ultimately intertwining work-related stressors with personal challenges.

HR Compliance is like a giant game of whack-a-mole. Once you think your company is compliant with all policies and procedures documented and in place, there’s a new or amended law, regulation, or final rule that pops up landing you back at ‘start.’ There are shifts, interpretations, and balancing acts to understanding compliance changes. Keeping up is not easy and it’s very time consuming.

This might sound like a strange comment coming from a training consultant, but all performance problems are not solved with training. It’s true. When companies are faced with performance challenges, they need to figure out what the challenge is and address it. The question becomes “What’s the right way to do it?”.

As companies look for ways to revitalize the employee performance review process, workplace coaching has become a popular topic. But what exactly is workplace coaching, and what does effective coaching look like? Teaching might actually be a better word to describe the process than coaching. When you imagine a coach, you probably picture someone shouting instructions from the sideline, doing much more talking than listening.
