Strategic HCM

I’m at CERN today for a session that their head of recruitment, James Purvis (in the picture, sitting in the middle) has put together.

Read this story I did for Gannett/USAToday and promise yourself that you'll spend some time this Thanksgiving holiday giving thanks for our military and their families.

Giving Up On Need To Be ‘Rational Always’

QAspire

As we grow, our belief system firms up with notions of what is right and what is wrong. What works and what not. At work, our beliefs further solidify according to the context we work in. Understanding of data, facts and trends is important because it make us “rational”. The problem starts however, when we try to be rational all the time. leader who always takes a rational standpoint fails to inspire people, because people are not always rational. An individual who always goes with conventional wisdom, proven tracks and charted paths quickly becomes “one amongst many”.

Could You Start a Fire With Your Multitasking?

45 Things

Anyone who multitasks say they do so because they're good at it. That's right before they find their car keys in the refrigerator and realize they've sent a naughty text to the boss instead of a significant other. Believe me, I understand. If I didn't multitask, how else would I be able to get anything done? We actually don't get more done.

Youth Unemployment, #CIPD11 and #ConnectingHR

Strategic HCM

My favourite post from CIPD11 was probably this one from Graham Salisbury: Executive Pay: The Subject Which Must Not Be Named in which Graham questions the absence of discussion on today’s absurd levels of executive reward and obscene differentials between the highest and lowest paid in UK society from the CIPD conference’s agenda (possibly due to the CIPD’s own differentials perhaps?).
