New challenges. New trends. New solutions. Posted by David (Chip) Newton on June 20, 2017. In many ways, health care providers are like any other service organization, subject to the same global economic, demographic, technology, and talent trends and challenges. But providers also face specific workforce challenges and, of course, the flipside: opportunities.

Do you use data and have metrics related to sourcing talent? For example, do you know which of your recruiting pipelines generates the highest percentage of hires? Do you continue to use data to assess employee productivity, engagement, and retention? What about using and analyzing data to ensure the right staffing levels or to know in advance when to hire new employees?

When my family moved to Florida eight years ago, we bought a house with a pool. We loved looking outside at night with the pool light on; peaceful and beautiful. But a few months later, the bulb burned out. Rather than call the pool guy, my husband went on YouTube and learned how to replace the bulb. I was a new CLO in a large healthcare system at the time and witnessing him turn to YouTube boggled my mind.

A few weeks ago, I attended the SHRM Talent Management Conference and TAtech Spring Congress. Both events are very heavily focused on talent acquisition, which isn’t a surprise given all of the media attention on “full employment”. But it made me realize that there are some fundamental tools human resources professionals might not have focused on over the past few years.

The underlying theme tying their two presentations together was that in order for HR to be successful with analytics, it’s necessary to connect HR goals (or your people s

Who are the thought leaders you turn to for business and management advice? Got room for one more? Over the past several months, my eyes have been caught by informative articles on leadership and productivity from the same author. I found an Inc. column so valuable that I asked if I could interview the author for our blog. Fortunately, he agreed to answer several questions about leadership, employee engagement, and organizational health.

Listen on Stitcher Listen on Blogtalkradio Talent management technology has come a long way in recent years. I can still remember seeing a demo for a technology solution back in 2014 and the salesperson was so proud of the fact that I could copy and paste data into the system. By the way: It wasn’t searchable. You couldn’t run reports. You couldn’t export anything.

I think most of us would admit that being a control freak is a frustrating (and ultimately losing) proposition. At work, our ability to “control” things is usually more dependent upon the company cruising on auto-pilot, business as usual, allowing us to have some sense of security in our ability to manage our day. But the reality is that your employer has the same tenuous grasp on control as we do – it’s all situational; it’s an illusion that gives you a false sense of comfort.

In fact, change can sometimes feel downright terrible. Even if change feels frustrating, scary, or pointless, transformation can often lead to growth and opportunity for any person willing to accept it. But why would someone buy in to corporate transition amidst the chaos that comes with it? In the first two parts of this three-part series, I discussed how science shows that to successfully navigate change, employees need to stay engaged in the workplace.

We’ve all seen the headlines lately about the U.S. being at “ full employment ”. On the surface, full employment might sound like a good thing, right? Well, not so fast. Full employment can create a couple of challenges. Over inflated compensation and benefits. I’m all for a competitive job market. Top talent should be able to get what they deserve for their skills and experience.

Recent studies have uncovered something surprising about happiness and attention. In one study, 15,000 participants were sent signals at random times during their day which asked them to respond to an in-the-moment poll. The poll contained a few questions like these: How do you feel on a scale ranging from very bad to very good?What are you doing?Are you thinking about something other than what you’re currently doing?

Stress is the single worst enemy of productivity. A stressed-out worker is usually not an efficient worker. Furthermore, high employee stress levels can lead to higher rates of employee turnover and absenteeism; who wants to work at a job with constant stress? Not only is stress an obstacle to productivity, it can work against a business’ attempts to attain key business objectives.

Sometimes, work can be dull and monotonous and employees may want to take a back seat and simply go with the flow instead of being proactive. While this may be acceptable at times, it can take a toll on the future of a company if employees become permanently lethargic, unmotivated, and uninterested in their work. A study also reveals that an unmotivated work environment is not good for the mental health of employees in the long run. .

At SHRM’s annual conference in New Orleans this week, the theme was “all in” – what it means to be all invested in your career, in the business, and in your people. What happens when you’re not all in? What if you don’t treat your employees like humans ? I got a glimpse of that on my journey home yesterday. While waiting for a layover in Newark, I received several text updates that my flight was delayed.

Change means giving up something. What are you willing to give up to move forward? Stop resisting change, even if it hurts. The way you look at a changing situation, or even a person who is changing, determines your reaction. Think about the times you have changed in your personal life without the support of your friends or family. It hurt, right? But with or without them, you made the change happen.

What we call performance management was first introduced in the 1970s, following the dawn of scientific management. Performance management emerged when it was discovered that worker satisfaction drives efficiency — the beginning of an emphasis on workplace happiness. But by 1992, 20 percent of companies were satisfied with their performance review systems, and in 1997, that number dropped to 5 percent.

Finding the right gifts to give to coworkers can be downright frustrating and stressful if you can’t come up with any good ideas. Getting unique office gifts for coworkers can be even more difficult than for friends because in spite of how much time you spend with your coworkers, it’s likely you keep business and personal matters fairly separate.

One of our most popular blog posts last year was titled, “How to Kill Happiness at Work.” Either HR people are really cruel or they’re genuinely concerned about the happiness of their employees (we’re guessing it’s the latter). In that post, I shared some interesting research from Woohoo Inc. on the causes of bad days at work. A global survey of more than 700 workers showed the top five causes of bad days are: Bad bosses (lack of help and support) – 40%.
