After overhauling Workday’s internal mobility programs in 2022, we saw a huge boost in internal hiring and retention of top performers. My colleague Inna Landman shares how we did it in this interview with Human Resource Executive. #InternalMobility #FutureofWork #WDAY

Fostering a cohesive team across borders is more crucial (and challenging) than ever. Navigating time zones, languages, and cultural nuances poses challenges on the path to seamless collaboration. Recent findings highlight that while 88% of US employees find international meeting schedules reasonable, our counterparts in Japan and Australia might disagree, with many feeling left to manage at odd hours.   These hurdles are not insurmountable. #EmployeeEngagement #GlobalWorkforce #CollaborationChallenges #RemoteWork #CompanyCulture

Skills, a shrinking labor pool, and keeping up with the pace of change is top of mind for me as the head of People. Review my recent blog on how to address this workforce readiness gap. #workforceagility #csod #skills

Talent Acquisition partners and internal talent acquisition teams have a direct impact on an organization's productivity. The criticality of building a consultative TA team has never been more important as the world finally shifts paradigms from TA moving from an operator to a consultative business enabler. Underscoring this is the criticality of insisting on the highest standards re: the talent you bring into your organization to hire your talent! #hiretowin #toptalent #scalebeyondthetalentbar #nwtalentsolutions https://lnkd.in/eHv3xfti

Current discussions about DEIA as an organizational imperative continue to rage. Please do not let your organization put this concept on the back burner. DEIA is a BUSINESS IMPERATIVE (not a nice-to-have). If you need analytics to support your business case - https://lnkd.in/gK56iFN6 Remember, you won't have to look for diversity; it will find you, AND diversity involves everyone! If you don't manage it correctly, YOU WILL RUN OUT OF PEOPLE (IMHO).

A new report from The Executive Leadership Council (ELC) surveyed 180 C-Suite and senior-level Black executives to get their perspective on the impact that DEI has—and should have—in business. 73% of executives who responded rated their companies as "high performing" on DEI strategy and implementation and credited their CEO's advocacy and leadership for driving progress.  From the report: "ELC respondents advise companies to treat DEI like every other known business driver; hold as a guiding principle that evident, accountable fairness and opportunity for all should underpin DEI initiatives; and even as attacks on DEI increase, remain steadfast in commitments to and actions that advance performance-based DEI."

This strategic decision underscores our commitment to leading with Inclusion as the catalyst for holistic change in workplaces and society This is part of an announcement from SHRM (link in the comments)." I'm curious if you agree or disagree. To make it an anonymous poll, please fill out the google doc. Your response is totally anonymous, but I may use it in an article.

SHRM: “…While we shift to I&D, our commitment to advancing Equity remains steadfast. Equity will be integrated under the broader Inclusion framework…” SHRM: "...Effective immediately, SHRM will be adopting the acronym "I&D" instead of "IE&D..." The SHRM article then makes a plea to "join us in creating meaningful change." WOW. Dropping Equity - SHRM, be better. #NoToSHRM https://lnkd.in/ddPikaAK

Thank you, Carrie Fox, for having me on the #MissionForward podcast. It's so important that you and other thought leaders are shining a spotlight on the growing level of incivility in our workplaces. We can't address the issue until we thoroughly understand what's really happening in our society and what we, as business leaders, can do to mitigate the effect it has across organizations. #CivilityAtWork #1MCivilConversations #WorkCulture
