The HR function is moving beyond automating processes, reducing costs, and managing compliance – to a more strategic role focused on driving people decisions that grow the business. This requires a shift from focusing on reporting to offering more strategic advice about critical people matters – such as recruitment, retention, development, etc.

Despite how well employees may be performing, sometimes you just need a little bit more out of them. Although you won’t be able to squeeze every last bit of productivity out of them, you can give them a nudge in the right direction. After all, it’s less expensive to keep an employee who has been trained and onboarded than it is to source, recruit, hire and train a new employee to fill gaps when the organizational goals shift and change with new business, economic changes or seasonal spikes.

When hiring recruiters, it’s not always such an easy job. While you can find many “recruiters” in your searches, to find a great recruiter can seem like searching for a needle in a haystack. One of the biggest things you need to pay attention to when interviewing recruiters is their analytical skills. Sure, people skills, sales skills, and marketing skills are all important, but without analytical skills a recruiter will often be subpar versus the Allstar recruiter you are looking for.

One of the things that I took away from this year’s WorkHuman conference hosted by Globoforce is that well-being must be employee centric. Organizations cannot mandate well-being. They do need to create the environment for well-being to thrive, then let employees embrace it. That being said, there are a few specific things organizations should consider when it comes to supporting employee well-being.

The ratings aren’t accurate, but they need to promote. The people they promote aren’t qualified, so you end up hiring new people anyway. The truth is, the poor cycle of performance management blunders can be solved with a simple word: data.

How often do you talk about pay with your employees? It's likely only a few times a year: when they get a raise, bonus or promotion. And during those limited times you discuss pay, the context around the conversation often amounts to little more than, "You're doing a great job." The lack of communication around compensation leads employees to make their own assumptions about their worth — and how their paychecks stack up to their peers.

In many businesses workers are paid wages or a salary, and that compensation is subject to income tax withholding and employer taxes. But sole proprietors, partners in a partnership, and the members of a limited liability company are never paid wages because they are considered to be self-employed.

When people get promoted into a management role, the going phrase is that you now have "hire and fire" power.

Employee engagement is a good news/bad news proposition. On the bright side, employee engagement is at its highest level since 2000, and overall employee engagement was up 2 percent from 2013 to 2014, per a January 2015 Gallup poll. Overall, 31.5 percent of U.S. employees are engaged at work. This is a good statistic, but only in the “sort of” sense.
