Years ago, I worked for an organization with a turnover problem. And this wasn’t just an isolated issue—it affected a significant amount of the 700-strong workforce and created an incredible burden on the HR staff to manage the issue.

First, last year (2015) we published the results of a large-scale study conducted by an independent third-party research organization (conducted in 2014) that took a deep dive into the value of certification in order to demonstrate and quantify the value of certification from the perspective of individual certificants – that is, the HR professional him/herself – and that of their supervisors.

There is a phenomenon that doesn’t get talked about much publicly, but it’s something that in-the-trenches HR folks deal with fairly regularly. While we want to “rise up” and think about big picture, have a strategic viewpoint, and assume the best , there are always going to be friction points that hold us back. It’s a part of the whole “working with people” thing. :-) Today I want to talk through a few recent questions I have received around the impact of social media in the workplace. Should we fire him?

Here are a few ideas to consider based on the results of Brandon Hall Group’s Business Focus 2014: Leaders’ Top Priorities report: Talent retention—Discuss retention initiatives and any cost savings associated with reduced turnover. Early every year, the President of the United States makes an address to the nation. The purpose of the annual “State of the Union ” address is to give an account of the year’s events and discuss the priorities of the coming months. So why don’t we give it a shot? In fact, even compliance can be strategic, if communicated properly. How big is your “ union ?”.

The term “average” is used commonly, but we sometimes forget what it means. The “average” score is made up of the highest and lowest scores. The “average” experience is made up of the best and worst experiences. And the “average” HR person is a mix of the best, most engaged and innovative professionals out there and the laziest, most unhelpful people you’ll meet. This is a story about the latter. It’s also a reminder of the importance of not only  what you are doing, but how you are doing it as well. week went by. No response.

HR is always a day late and a dollar short. Chris Powell, CEO BlackbookHR. That comment from Chris Powell has stuck with me since our initial conversation, and I think it’s a reality we all need to be aware of and try to mitigate.
