When HR and business strategy work in sync, organizations can drive key initiatives, attract top talent, and secure long-term success. Yet, a global disconnect between the two often leads to misalignment and employee misunderstandings, hindering progress. That’s the finding of our Annual Eightfold Talent survey conducted with 3Sixty Insights on HR and talent strategy, which polled 1,700 people across the globe. When a department such as HR isn’t valued, […]

Unit4 Webinar: The Big Talent Conundrum | March 19th @ 11am Eastern

The talent market has become increasingly complex. It’s no longer the post-pandemic landscape where millions of people left their jobs in search of new opportunities in a market full of promise. While there are still millions of open positions, accessing them has become more challenging. On top of this, we now face the “Great Disconnect” and the “Great Disenchantment.” People no longer feel connected to their work, the organization’s goals, or their future. This disconnect is something we need to address. As talent leaders, it’s crucial to have a clear strategy for identifying gaps, addressing them through internal or external sources, and effectively onboarding talent.

theHRDIRECTOR – Overworked Americans

Over the past few months, as part of Dylan’s research with 3Sixty Insights, he has delved deeper into the labor statistics of overwork, burnout culture, and time away from work. These fall under the broader category of work-life balance and help form a more pressing data-driven picture of employee well-being and experience. In his previous piece, ‘The Productivity Dilemma,’ he outlined how American workers are typically more productive annually than their European colleagues but are so at the cost of their overall well-being. The caveat is that American workers trail behind nations like Luxembourg, Ireland, and Norway in hourly labor productivity. In 2023, Luxembourg and Ireland worked twice the GDP per hour ($146 and $143, respectively) compared to the US ($70), which ranked between Guyana and Finland. An […]

HR Executive Article: ‘AI Is a Talent Magnet’ – How to Leverage Its Power in 2025

worklife Article: The High Cost of Silos – Trillions Lost When HR, Company Goals Are Out of Sync

It’s become a cliché of business: working in silos is almost always a terrible idea.
