My favourite presentation at last week's conference was given by Shaunagh Harvey Kelly and Mike Morley Fletcher from E&Y (the slide comes from a different presentation). I think risk tends to get forgotten by HR functions (perhaps not within those covered by SOX). But the risk management approach outlined by the E&Y consultants fits perfectly with the requirements for HCM reporting within the UK's business review and similar reports elsewhere.
Not sure if this one is quite your ball of wax, but I'm looking for a way to say, as a positive statement, that I have had the authority/reponsibility of firing as well as hiring on my resume. Is there a better term to use? Ahh, excellent question. (See, now I'm much less crabby since I no longer have 10.5 pounds of baby pummeling my ribcage.) Having supervisory experience can mean a broad range of things and certainly not all supervisors have hire/fire authority.
'It is often difficult to discipline an employee that we like. Some employees have a way of making their way into a manager''s heart which can make the manager''s job difficult when it comes time to deal with problems surrounding that employee. A manager certainly must show compassion and concern for employees'' welfare and development. But there is a significant difference between compassion and concern and allowing problems to slide.
I'm blogging belatedly about a conference I spoke at last week, the Legal IT Leadership Summit (LITLS), sponsored by Interwoven. This was my second time for this conference, and was a great chance to reconnect with old friends like Andy McAfee and Neil Araujo , and meet some new ones like Gordon Vala-Webb , Ben Kiker , and Doug Cornelius, whose KM Space blog I've added to my list of favorites.

An Australian researcher is looking for fellow Aussies who read blogs but do not blog themselves. Assuming the usual numbers of 1% active writers, 10% participants, and the remainder behind the scenes, there should be no end of candidates. However, "behind the scenes" implies a host of reasons, including time and desire to be known, which might work against being found out.
My organization handed me an administration manuel w/ no hiring and firing procedures. I have a small staff and have had to fire on three occasions. The procedural steps I do use were gained by asking other senior staff in hallways what they do in this organization. And I have followed those procedures. These procedures require a supervisor to be present at the point of firing as a witness.

My question pertains to terminating an employee for lying on their application. Does it matter how the company found out they lied? Any insight would be greatly appreciated. Your question intrigues me because I'm trying to figure out how you found out about a lie in such a way that you are afraid to present the information as a reason for termination.

'Your business should strive to be a high performing organization. Becoming a high performing business takes careful attention to detail and instilling a high level of accountability and discipline. When accountability for completing tasks and meeting expectations is lacking or loose, a business will have a very difficult time achieving a high performance state.

Remember, compliance rules can differ based on industry and location—you’ll still need to keep up with changing regulations, but our checklist can help you get started.
'Your people are the key to your success (or failure). Why anyone hurries the hiring process is mind-boggling to say the least. Even in a tight labor market businesses want to hire the best of what''s available. Here are some tips for hiring good people: -Be patient. Don''t hurry the hiring process. We believe you are better off with a vacant position than having a marginal employee filling it.
I relocated to a new state in 2006 and have just completed my first year at the company I am now with. So it's time for the performance review. I did my self review - the standard rate yourself from 1 - 5 on a bunch of different things blah blah blah. Today my boss came into my office with the review and said to me "You weren't here when we did the training on how to fill these out.
Just to be wild and crazy (you know how us HR types are when we get together with the lawyers)the Carnival will be published on Thursday, rather than Wednesday--just this time. The reason is that our host, Michael Moore (the lawyer, that is, not the film maker), has changed jobs and blogs. The new blog is Pennsylvania Labor and Employment Blog.
Here is my situation. I applied for a position, and was interviewed only to never be contacted again after the standard thank you notes were sent. I've found out that the company I interviewed with is e-mailing people who worked with applicants, but who weren't listed as references. You see, they sent an email to my current company in regards to another applicant.

In today’s complex healthcare environment, navigating third-party relationships has become even more challenging—whether it’s vendor relationships, employee activities, or patient-facing interactions. Left unmanaged, these conflicts can compromise trust, regulatory compliance, and even organizational reputation. So, how can healthcare teams stay ahead?

Bill Brantley has issued a Call to Action to the Personal Knowledge Management Community to fix up the Personal Knowledge Management entry on Wikipedia. He kindly mentions my name as one of those to mention in the reference list. I swear I did some creating / editing of the entry a while back. Even though I don't see my name in the history, I am pretty sure some of the basic structure is mine.

'In assessing a manager''s ability to manage people, we believe it is important for a manager or supervisor to step back and look introspectively at their ability to direct the efforts of others as well as think about the environment they operate within. The following brief questionnaire is for your use in carrying out this type of self-assessment. Please respond to each question as honestly and objectively as possible in order to provide yourself with an accurate reflection of your situation. 1

We celebrated the new creature's one week birthday by him being awake at the time of his birth (3:37 a.m.). Sigh. But, I am alive and I intend to resume blogging. Even though I'm operating on a serious lack of sleep, I feel so much better now and should be considerably less crabby. Thanks for all your kind wishes and thoughts. Now, if you could all wish for him to realize that day=awake and night=sleep, that would be swell.

If ever there was an application that doesn't get the respect it deserves, it's the company directory. I've spent most of the last week talking with Socialtext customers and prospects about our new People and Dashboard features. The response has been overwhelmingly positive, which has been great to see. But in some ways it has been surprising. While some of the people I talk with are really engaged by "Web 2.0″ features of the offering (social networking, tagging, expert search, etc.), a lot
Stan Garfield asked a number of people their opinion on KM in the form of "If you were invited to give a keynote speech on knowledge management, what words of wisdom or lessons learned would you impart?" I said something smart enough that he has blogged it this week on his Weekly KM Blog, Social Networking Tools at HP, Jack Vinson, Matt Moore in America, Prediction Markets, Building Enterprise Taxonomies.
'When there are problems in a particular area of your business, make every attempt to determine the causes of the problem before hiring additional full-time permanent employees to deal with the problem. In other words, don''t automatically assume that the problem is too few people. For example, suppose a distribution company is constantly dealing with backlogs and delays in shipments.
