We’ve all heard the stereotypes: “Baby boomers are traditional,” “Gen Xers value work-life balance,” “Millennials are lazy.”. Turns out they don’t hold water: A 2016 study by Jennifer J. Deal at the Center for Creative Leadership found there’s no significant difference between generations in job performance, working styles, or basic values. All generations are equally change-resistant, and everyone wants development opportunities. MORE

Having a bad manager is like eating a bad burrito at lunch: it’s uncomfortable and stressful and makes you want to quit your job. The sad thing is, a stressed-out employee usually means the manager is struggling too. MORE

Knowledge workers care about what they do for a living. They can’t help it. A job in the knowledge economy requires years of education, innate talents, and a lot of an employee’s time. It’s not just button-pushing. MORE

Ah, graduation season. That time of year when parents rejoice, students turn into professionals, and businesses brace for a horde of incoming hires they seem to not understand at all. At least that’s the sense I got from a Gallup report released last week. MORE
OCTOBER 12, 2018
Sexual Harassment prevention training has been widespread since the 1980s. But the rates of sexual harassment complaints have not gone down in the decades since. While many companies have some sort of sexual harassment prevention training and policy, that statement is quite dismal. “I’ve MORE

JULY 6, 2018
Changing behaviors is hard — even if the behavior is just getting people to take training! We can’t rely on our employees to be compelled to enter our platforms just because we tell them that it’s “suggested” or “required” training. Our employees are busy, so why should they use their precious time on what we assign to them? The thing is, the most relevant and effective training content in the world will only be effective if people consume it. MORE
APRIL 2, 2018
If you were interviewing for a job or screening candidates about 10 years ago, you might remember Google’s famous brain-teaser interview questions. They used to pose questions that were nearly impossible to answer: How many piano tuners are there in Chicago? How many ping pong balls can you fit in a car? The tactic seemed revolutionary at the time, yet Google doesn’t do this anymore. Turns out it didn’t help them learn the right information about their candidates. MORE

MARCH 23, 2018
Across L&D, compliance is considered a necessary evil: the scourge of both employees and learning practitioners and an annual box to check for risk-averse company executives. Ask an employee, and they’ll say compliance training brings to mind 1980s-era harassment videos coupled with requirements to change your password every 90 days. It’s no wonder compliance training has come to be seen as something to dread by everyone involved. MORE

When you think about employee discipline, it’s likely that you think about disciplinary action: punishment, warnings, performance improvement plans, suspensions, and all that. But discipline can also mean a structure, attitude, and environment that supports excellence. Think about the way you might refer to discipline to train for running a marathon, or to study for exams, or to get all of your housework out of the way before you watch a movie. MORE
MAY 23, 2018
Many employees will spend a quarter of their lives in the workplace. On any given day, they will spend more time interacting with their colleagues than loved ones. In a society that places much value on productivity, profit, and bottom lines, physical, and mental health in the workplace often becomes collateral damage, especially in high-stress work environments. Workplace stress is inevitable and, at times, can foster motivation. MORE
