Any strategies or resources you could recommend for getting rid of the dreaded annual performance review (or at least lessening the dread) and creating a more effective year round performance feedback system? Our review is currently tied to our end of year bonuses and merit increases, so not sure I could get rid of it entirely. This would be for hourly and management employees, all working on-site.

Are hackathons still relevant after college for profile building?

Any suggestions about how to think through the next act in life when a couple is able to sell the business that they have built for well into eight figures so that financial security is no longer an issue. Any thoughts on the merit of just taking a one year respite to think things through? Thanks

Strategy is about much more than insights and creatives need to know when done well it also sets the stage for clients to be open to new ideas, to wider opportunities, to new awareness of what’s happening in the world around us. Anyone who doesn’t respect this is missing the larger point and diminishing the larger value of the discipline.

Has anyone hired a virtual assistant to manage things like making drs appointments, calling customer service, meal planning or grocery shopping, scheduling car maintenance, etc - is this a thing? If so, was it worth it?

Hard to digest: during 2000-2001 .com bubble, overall there were 107K layoffs (yes, then the tech staff was less compared to today). But in just Q4 2022, there have been 120K lay offs so far and looks like it’s just the beginning.

Advice for transitioning from Talent COE to HRBP?

I have spent my career in Talent COE (L&D, Culture, Change Management) and I am looking for HR business partner experience. I have a few Informationals lined up with HRBP hiring managers at my current org. What are good questions to ask? Any tips to demonstrate that I am ready/can transition into an HRBP role? I’ve been a manger since 2016, so preference is for at least a lateral move.

I’m looking to carve out my career in HR. I have 2 years in a dedicated HR Coordinator role (essentially with Generalist duties) and 5+ years in senior level hospitality management. I’m interested in getting my PHR or getting a certificate in data analytics with business/HR focus. Thoughts on next steps?

For those that passed the SHRM-CP/SCP - how did you prepare to pass? How long did you study for- did you take any prep classes etc. How did you decide CP vs SCP

Hey,
Has anyone purchased of the HRCIs untimed or timed exams for the PHR or SPHR? Did you find the practice exam helpful and the questions similar to what you saw on the test?

Story Time: We had a team member quit this morning without notice. When the management team asked why he was being so unprofessional and not giving two weeks' notice. The team member’s response was, “would you give me two weeks' notice before firing me”? No one knew how to respond to this.

Question…
recently we were acquired by a public company. The husband and wife who started the company gave their daughter a pay raise and a huge jump in her job title. She has minimal experience and is very under qualified for her job. Many employees are very upset about her sudden promotion with lack of experience and are coming to me upset. They also gave her full admin capability in our HRIS system with access to PII and confidential information, she is not in HR and no other directors have

Opinions:

Work for a company recently bought by Private Equity (US owned, Australian branch) with the view to become SVP HR as the company grows (they have plans). Currently 180 people but should be 300 in next few years in Pharma.

Or

Public listed Tech company and join as Country Head of HR? Heaps of growth and scope?

Just wanting to hear your thoughts

Currently taking HR certification courses with Drexel and was planning to also do the pHR certification, but because I don’t have a degree in HR and I haven’t “formally” been working in HR, I don’t qualify, any suggestions on certifications that can help me develop my current office manager position into full HR?

Curious as to others' threshold on when you require a doctors note to verify someone is indeed unable to (remotely) work for an extended period of time due to illness. Where do you draw the line?

What types of “time off”do you track? Curious to know what others do if someone has jury duty or has to deal with something out of their control (losing power due to weather). I have some employees who needed time off for the hurricane last week. Thanks in advance!

Does your company offer Volunteer Hours? If so, how many per year?

Hi all, as a Talent Acquisition Partner that is looking to start expending my Professional education, would you recommend pursuing SHRM-CP certification?

how are you all feeling about an org that is saying absolutely nothing about everything going on in the world. nothing about mental health awareness month, nothing about rowe v wade, nothing about inflation, etc but we are in the HR/Recruiting consulting realm and our clients are even asking us for guidance on these conversations . (yes, myself and others have also asked) I have been looking and interviewing elsewhere but looking on how you are all navigating having healthy conversations!

Is anyone familiar with non-profit HR? I sit on a non-profit board and lend my HR expertise to them. Our executive director is leaving and other board members want to pay a “leaving bonus” as a thank you for her hard work and say it’s common in non-profit realm. I have researched and see a lot of retention bonuses but unsure why we’d give someone a bonus on their way out and don’t want to set a precedent for doing this. Any insight is appreciated.
