6 Ways to Handle Criticism at Work
45 Things
MAY 3, 2011
After a week lounging around on the beach, I'm back on the job and trying to catch up with my blog. So, here's the latest column I did for Gannett/USAToday: Unfortunately, criticism is a part of the working world. • A co-worker criticizes your contribution to a report. • The boss criticizes the way you handled a client. • A co-worker criticizes your contribution to a report. Don't become defensive.
Love in HR (and at #HRevolution)
Strategic HCM
MAY 1, 2011
So, for one thing, there was the general lovey-doveyness of the thing whole (nothing wrong with that) as in Trish’s tweet here. But the real driver for this post was Paul Hebert’s session on incentives and recognition, as well as a general frustration in this and other sessions with a**holes. But I still think the original point was spot on. think we do need love in our organisations.

MAY 4, 2011
Dear Evil HR Lady, Will you please stop telling people to network in order to find jobs? appreciate the need to keep in contact with former colleagues and to speak with people I meet at professional conferences. know that I will some day want a new job and I hope my contacts will help me. But, I’m happily employed. In fact, the problem is I have a good job with a good company. swear everyone I’ve ever passed on the street has tried to get me to get them a job. If I worked with you in the past, it might make sense. Tell people to stop. I'm Tired Of People Wanting to Network With Me

As mentioned, Laurie Ruettimann and I presented on "Pop Culture, Politics, and HR" this past weekend at HREvolution. imagine that the presentation would have been vastly different if the Obama news came out Friday night instead of Sunday night (in fact, Laurie''s blog this morning would have most likely been a centerpoint of the discussion). What do I want from work and the workplace besides money?

Well, we did it again! CHRU-2 was just as successful as CHRU-1 , and just as lovey (not just lovely) as HRevolution. So I’ve been been thinking further about the success of these events. And I still think the ‘getting the presentations out of the way’ that I referred to in my last post is a big part of what’s going on. This is important firstly because this is the direction of HR evolution.

The last few weeks have been a whirlwind for me. Professionally I''ve met some of the most accomplished leaders in the Human Resources industry. People I''ve admired from afar and traded quick messages with in cyberspace. People who make a difference. I''m trying to make a difference too. But the bar they have set is very difficult to reach. So I''m thinking it''s going to be a while before I start to see their tail lights ahead in the distance. It''s new for me.and it''s a huge undertaking. thought cut throat behaviors were in corporate America.try starting a high-level hockey club.
More people focused language: equality

MAY 1, 2011
As well as love , I’d already posted on my other blog about equality (another of Gary Hamel’s examples of a more people focused language ). Actually, the post was mainly about John Lewis, and the British royal wedding last week – no, not the shop’s chintzy plates , but the link between co-ownership and republicanism. But equality was the fundamental point behind these things.

Tuesday was, as Victorio Milian would say, a put up or shut up day for me. In Monday''s post I discussed how I had committed to not only being a participant at HRevolution , but actually stepping up and taking action once I returned home. The day of reckoning happened for me on Tuesday. Go For It I am privileged to meet with a terrific group of leaders on a quarterly basis. We started as colleagues, but our connections have grown deeper. My call to action was to challenge this group to do more.be more.push themselves.to change how they practice HR. Completely.

A call to action. That''s what I committed to at HRevolution. stood up and declared that I would step up in my real life back in Florida and deliver on my commitment. Jason Lauritsen and Steve Browne challenged us to not just strategize about what we would/could/should do in our HR practice, but to actually do it. Sounded so cool at the nation''s most cutting-edge HR event.feels a bit different back in [ insert the name of your town here ] and in my real life too. Lip Service is for Conferences (Not unConferences) As it turns out, my call to action commitment is going to happen on Tuesday.
