MAY 4, 2018
In this new, supercharged, super-fast, super-competitive economy, we’re sure you’d agree that we need customers to love our brands, love our products and advocate for our companies.

There is serious pressure for organization leaders to engage employees and hit peak productivity. In 2017, 56% of CEOs reported “recruiting and retention” as primary concerns. A company cannot function without its employees; individuals that have valuable skills and training that can take weeks, months or years to match. So, of course, HR is in overdrive, managing engagement, strategizing long-term retention plans and calculating turnover rates.

Question: We would like to convert our vacation and sick leave benefits into a PTO plan. What steps should we take in the conversion? Answer from the experts at HR Hero : An employer really has a great deal of discretion in how they convert vacation and sick time into a PTO plan. While there is no specific best or required practice for converting, the overarching theme is that the more communication and advance notice employees have, the better and the less likely they are to be frustrated by t

Patterns in nature are remarkable, from the smallest to the largest scale: The symmetrical pointed star shows up in starfish and segments of fruit. The same fractal patterns are seen in leaf veins, wood grains and branches of trees.

I’m a huge introvert, which means that I need quiet time to recharge. So, I’ve been known to ask questions like, “Do I need to make that decision right away?” or “Can I sleep on that?”. These are ways for me (the introvert) to find time to process information. It doesn’t mean that the answer would be negative. It just means I need time to think. Another comment that people might make to buy themselves some thinking time is “Let me check my calendar and get back to you.

Connection is a key to employee engagement because we connect with our organizations through the people with whom we work, the mission and values of the organization, and the work we perform. Our work and our company are a part of who we are. The job, then, becomes more than just a set of tasks we perform. When employees find connection , they work as a team, generate ideas, solve problems, take care of customers, and act with the organization’s best interests in mind.
