I’m a self-professed math geek. Which is why I’m very excited to share with you today’s interview. But before we start, I want to share how I learned about Dr. Jac Fitz-enz. I’ve told this story before but I’m going to tell it again. In my very first human resources manager role, I attended a weekly department head meeting. My boss would have all of us go around the table, talk about the projects we were working on, and discuss any resources (i.e. budget and staff) we needed to achieve our goals

Employee experience is often tied to your current team members. It’s important to make sure they’re happy, feeling engaged, and are connected with both the team and company goals. But focusing on the employee experience only when someone is officially an employee is hurting your chances of hiring the best candidates. To dive deeper into the idea of bringing the employee experience into your interview processes, we spoke with Stuart Coleman and Mandy Yoh.

I should probably add “hiring manager” to the title of this post. The individuals responsible for finding and hiring the organization’s talent need skills. It’s not fair to simply say, “Hey! Go hire some high performers and rock stars. Oh, and do it quickly. And, cheaply.” I’m not writing this post to say that a recruiter or hiring manager needs to have these skills before they can get involved in the recruiting process.

Human Resources has been experiencing a shift in recent years, one that’s aiming to re-humanize business. That’s why the title for this department or role in many organizations is switching from “HR” to “People Ops” or “VP of People & Culture.” The historical paradigm of HR has expired, as we can no longer view people as resources that must be maintained, catalogued, and put to use in a way that proves their worth, lest they be replaced. .

Managers put doing performance reviews right behind firing someone as their top two most disliked activities. How bizarre is that? Giving constructive feedback, mentoring, training, and improving the performance of their staff should be their number one motivation. Staff members hate them, too. They dislike the fact that managers delay and avoid doing them, and feel they are paternalistic, controlling, and at odds with taking personal initiative and designing your future in a company.
