It''s the post with the picture of Brad Pitt. recently wrote a post at Compensation Café called The Young and the Restless , about how Generation Y is more likely to leave an organization they are satisfied with than other generations. Because they aren’t tied down by things like kids, mortgages and 15 years of experience in a particular field. They are unfettered - at least the ones who didn’t borrow $80K to major in History at an Ivy League school - and can afford to take chances, try something new and even fail. You don’t lose the people who can’t leave. Think Moneyball. Be creative.

Its mid-March.one of my favorite times of the year. It means the Men''s Division I NCAA basketball tournament, aka "March Madness" is about to begin.

Training: The Change Agent

Organizations that embark on process journey initiate rigorous training programs to ensure that everyone is trained to perform activities associated with specific roles. While these initiatives start with a lot of zest, somewhere, it loses steam. have seen training programs becoming more of a “necessary evil” over a period of time. Trainers take these trainings for granted and completely lose the sight of their objectives. They conduct trainings simply because they have a budget/training process/calendar that they have to comply with. Imparting training is a costly affair.
Why All Leaders Are Social Workers

Part 1 of a 2 part series on the fusion of social and work. Are you a social worker? I don’t mean someone who went to university and took a Master’s of Social Work with courses in welfare policy, community practice, or family dynamics. mean someone who acknowledges, practices, and works socially. social worker as I define it is someone who knows they don’t work alone, that relationships matter, and that social work will always trump isolated star performance in the long run. If you are a leader you are also a social worker. Our brains our wired to connect. Breaking convention.

Recently I've noticed there are a lot fewer screaming kids while I'm running my weekend errands, and I think I've figured out why: All the kids are plugged in. Even kids who can barely walk are holding mommy's cellphone or daddy's iPad. They're playing games, intently drooling over whatever is on the screen. You may not think anything about video games other than your kids play them too much.

I''ve been reflecting on my style lately. Not my clothes, but rather how I approach my personal and professional lives. I''ve also been thinking a lot about balance. used to call it work-life balance, but that doesn''t really seem to apply anymore. Life balance is more appropriate for me. Work is demanding and requires a lot of time if its going to be done well. At least that''s the way I see it. Work Hard, Play Hard When I run down the list of my responsibilities, projects, and deliverables at work I get fired up! Personally I try to keep a stout pace as well. Am I supposed to? Are you?

I''m not afraid to admit that, under pressure, I may not have performed to the best of my ability. I may have whiffed during a crucial interview or two. However, I never had a day as bad as Billy Cundiff in this year''s AFC championship game. With mere seconds left, Cundiff had an opportunity to kick a short 32-yard FG to send his Baltimore Ravens into overtime against the New England Patriots.

So, um., I''ve been avoiding discussing much of the contraceptive coverage debate until much of the dust settles. However, this recent Arizona item left me speechless: The Senate Judiciary Committee voted 6-2 Monday to endorse a controversial bill that would allow Arizona employers the right to deny health insurance coverage for contraceptives based on religious objections. Ignoring HIPAA concerns. Alright HR peeps, do you really want to spend your time asking employees about their sex lives? Will this kind of activity get you closer to being the strategic HR partner you''ve aspired to be?
