CultureIQ recently conducted a poll of 2,000 US employees as part of its annual "Global Workforce Culture Survey." While the survey revealed a renewed sense of purpose and dignity among workers, it also identified a few key workplace culture challenges that need to be addressed — including safety and agility. The poll was conducted from March 20 to April 1, a time ...
Upskilling and reskilling have been hot topics in HR and recruiting recently. There is a common conception that rapid technological transformation will soon force organizations across every industry to focus on retraining employees to develop high-tech and scientific skills to stay afloat. In my opinion, however, that's not necessarily the case. It really depends on the specific ...
Placing workers on furlough or conducting layoffs during the COVID-19 crisis is many organizations' worst-case scenario, but it is increasingly becoming a reality as management teams respond to the shifting global economy. While making workforce changes is always challenging, it is further complicated when that workforce includes non-employees, also known as "third parties" or "contractors." Failing to properly manage security protocols after non-employee roles have been furloughed or eliminated can ...
Whether it's an emerging startup's acquisition by a well-known industry player or an international corporation's massive merger years in the making, successful mergers and acquisitions (MA) require a significant amount of time, energy, and resources from stakeholders across the organization. During times of busy MA activity, senior executives often focus on tangible assets like increased financials, improved products, and expanded client portfolios. As a result, focus ...
COVID-19 has uprooted millions of lives worldwide.

Workers are also concerned about their health and how this pandemic may affect their financial well-being. Good business leaders know that employee well-being is vital to business success, especially at a time like this. Even so, implementing ...
HR benchmarking first hit the scene in 1980, finally giving organizations a way to assess relative performance for important measures like turnover. For all its benefits, this first wave of benchmarking relied on surveys and other data that was often self-reported and therefore subject to bias. The data was also typically 24 months old, which was "good enough" at a time when commercial markets were more predictable and industries evolved more slowly. Now, however, organizations are operating in a more fast-paced environment, and ...
Modern workplaces increasingly demand dynamic skill sets, creative problem-solving, and adaptability — especially in the midst of a pandemic. To keep up with the complex, fast-paced, ever-changing world of business today, hiring managers are under intense pressure to find high-ability candidates as quickly as possible. But a resume is hardly enough to determine whether a given candidate has what it takes to confidently handle modern workplace challenges. Our hiring practices have to keep pace with the evolving world of work, and that ...
