Once you get into HR you’ll see. It sucks the life out of you and before long you’ll be like everyone else in HR–just hating your life and making it miserable for everyone else. That conversation with a friend prior to me taking my first HR job has been forever burned into my brain. On that day I promised myself that I would never follow that path, instead charting a direction that brought a positive approach and results to the people I worked with (both inside and outside HR). think we know this, but it needs to be said. HR has a PR problem. The “no” people.

Ask a Manager

It’s five answers to five questions. Here we go…. 1. My vacation request was denied, and I’m furious that my coworkers got to take time off then. In March, I submitted a vacation request for July 13-15. My manager denied the request, saying that it was during a “black out” period following our second quarter close. She explained that no one is allowed to take time off during any of the two weeks of a quarter close. asked if I could appeal to her boss for an exception, with the assurance that I would be happy to work extra hours to clear my workload in advance of the days off.

One of my biggest takeaways from this year’s Great Place to Work Conference was the idea that organizations have one brand. It’s not about having a consumer brand and an employment brand. Organizations are using a singular brand to appeal to customers, candidates, and employees. But that also means that organizations need to be very conscious of their brand identity. That’s not a typo.

We read a recent article explaining how Maslow’s Hierarchy of Needs can be applied to employee engagement. The theory suggests there are five, interdependent human needs that must be met in order to for someone to reach their full potential. The author argues that in the context of employee engagement, when five distinct needs are met, people are more motivated to be a high-performing leader. Just as with Maslow’s theory, there’s a cause-and-effect relationship with meeting specific needs and fulfilling one’s potential in the workplace.

Germans like things to be on time (at work, when expecting parcels from the post office, or when waiting for subways). This means: we love to make regular appointments. So when it comes to a project, we will probably ask for more than one meeting to discuss the status of the work done so far. And indeed, be waiting in the conference room 5 minutes earlier. So better be on time. We like to plan ahead, and the worst thing that could happen is something not running on schedule.
