This is What Matters Now

Blog: Author: Katherine Ratkiewicz | Source: HCI | February 2, 2012

For the past few years, we’ve been leading up to this point – rightsizing, restructuring, looking for ways to do more with less, and trying to place bets on what will position our organizations for success in our time. My bet is that it’s all about innovation and disruption – rethinking the way we “do” business and the way we “do” leadership - in order to meet the big, hairy, business challenges that are just around the corner.Who better to help us rethink the biggest business issues of our time than the Wall Street Journal’s #1 ranked most influential business thinker – Gary Hamel? In his brand new book, What Matters Now – How to Win in a World of Relentless Change, Ferocious Competition, and Unstoppable Innovation he tackles the very questions that business leaders and human capital practitioners alike are grappling with every day. He explores the “fundamental, make-or-break issues that will determine whether your organization thrives or dives in the years ahead”- sounds like just what we need! more »

Old Habits and New Ambitions this Holiday Season

     Blog: Author: Aubrey Krekeler Wiete | Source: HCI | December 7, 2011

The Christmas countdown is officially in the teens, and I am sputtering trying to figure out when that happened. Of course, this is an annual occurrence that happens to me and almost everyone I know. Time creeps up and the holiday circus of parties, eggnog, and good cheer is quickly upon us. But, of all of the holiday tasks on my to-do list, there is one that holds a special place in my heart and in the country of procrastination: decking the halls. more »

People, Purchases and Early Wakeup Calls

     Blog: Author: Aubrey Krekeler Wiete | Source: HCI | December 1, 2011

Last Friday had black written all over it: sales up 7.3%, the Dow gaining 200+ points,  a whole website dedicated solely to the 24-hour impasse that is the busiest shopping day of the year. There’s no doubt about it – we are a nation of consumers.

I have not personally participated in Black Friday before (shocking, I know), but enough conversations with friends and stories about 3am wake-up calls, doorbuster deals, and specialty Friday Finds leaves me with more than a few nuggets of information to chew on.

How’s Your Talent Doing?

     Article: Author: Ladan Nikravan | Source: Talent Management Magazine | November 28, 2011

 
Assessments are expanding beyond the pre-hire arena into succession management and talent development, and will soon offer leaders on-demand analytics capability.

 

Assessment is both blessing and curse for today’s talent leaders. They need it to ensure they are doing the right thing for their employees and organizations, but gathering the necessary data is easier said than done. Fortunately, assessment tools continue to evolve in type and technology.
