#HRTechChat: The “Ambition Recession” and Activating Employees with Pamela Stroko

Posted on by

Welcome back to another episode of #HRTechChat, where we dive into the latest trends and strategies in human resources and workplace technology. In this podcast episode, our host, Jennifer, is joined by HR expert Pamela Stroko to discuss a pressing topic – the staggering 59% of the workforce who are quietly quitting their jobs. Pamela sheds light on the concept of the “”Dead Zone,”” the time of day when remote or hybrid workers are not available to their managers. This lack of trust and connection to work has contributed to the decline in productivity and engagement among employees. Pamela introduces a concept called the “Ambition Recession,” a term coined by Gad Levanon, which points to the decline in employee ambition and engagement since the pandemic. […]

Research Note: The Crucial Role of Managers in Creating a Positive Team Experience: Leveraging PepTalk to Invest in Development for Business Success

Posted on by

Introduction Current HR trends have us all investing in and focusing on individual employee engagement and development. While we’ve all gone down this path and are seeing positive results for the individual employee, the well-being of our teams is an aspect of business that gets neglected. Almost every employee is part of a team driven by a leader we rely on. We expect the team manager to bring about positive results on every level from productivity to effectiveness to handling conflict. How are you enabling your managers to lead your teams? Are they equipped for success? Do they have the tools they need to meet expectations? In today’s post-pandemic work environment, where employees seek a different experience at work, the role of the manager in […]

Research Agenda: The 3Sixty Insights Talent Management Research Themes for 2023

Since engaging with the HR technology space as a research analyst, I have had many eye-opening conversations with solution providers and human resource leaders alike.

#HRTechChat: How Maji Tharpe is challenging the status quo

Posted on by

March 8th marks International Women’s Day and a special opportunity for organizations to celebrate the contributions of their female employees. This is an especially important day to me because it is about empowering women in the workplace.

Why Career Resilience Matters; and What You Can Do About It

Posted on by

With the “layoff” headlines circulating, it seems as though everyone has shifted into maximum tactical mode. Our priorities concerning talent have suddenly shifted from an emphasis on growth to cutting back. HR teams are focused on retention for now, but the atmosphere certainly feels considerably different than normal—don’t you agree? That was the beginning of a recent conversation I had with Larry McAlister, founder of The Corporate Humanist Consultancy and #1 international bestselling author of “The Power to Transform – A Field Guide to Building a Human-Centered, Tech-Enabled Work Culture.”  We asked each other, how do we rebuild trust and where do you start rebuilding it?  It was the moment we started talking about career resilience, growth mindset, and using advances in work technology to […]

#HRTechChat: Jamie Aitken, Vice President of HR Transformation at Betterworks

“Why would you ever want to be in a place where you can’t thrive?” asked Jamie Aitken near the close of our conversation. It’s a good question. We contemplated many on this episode of the video podcast, Jamie’s second appearance on #HRTechChat. As vice president of HR Transformation at Betterworks, she’s party to (and helps lead) many discussions with employers looking to modernize their approach to, and related software for, promoting employee engagement and measuring and improving employees’ performance. “Why Modern Organizations Need Modern Performance Management and How to Get There” is the unofficial title that Jamie and I gave our chat. Continuing on the theme we covered last time, of moving from operational to strategic HR, this latest conversation of ours closely examined just […]

“I think we’re now in the post Great Resignation world. We’re into what is next,” said Geoff Webb, vice president of solution strategy at isolved and my guest for this episode of the #HRTechChat video podcast. We’ve spoken with Geoff on a number of occasions, and it was a real pleasure to do a deep-dive with him looking into the results of isolved’s report titled “Pause, Pivot or Plan: HR Trends of 2023.” During the recording, by the way, I failed to mention that Goeff is also a member of our Global Executive Advisory Council. And, while we’re discussing “slightly slight” oversights, it’s probably incumbent upon me to inform readers: during the episode, we also mistakenly noted that this report would “be live soon,” when, […]

My guest, Caitlin Collins, a highly trained organizational psychologist, knows more than a little bit about this. Caitlin is program strategy director at Betterworks, where she’s instrumental in helping the company to be as effective as possible in providing solutions and strategies enabling employers to move beyond stilted annual performance reviews and toward a much more frequent, interactive cadence between managers and […]

Research Note: Engagedly’s E3 Platform Delivers Significant, Positive Impact to Productivity and the Employee Experience

Posted on by

What You Need to Know The modern workplace is becoming increasingly competitive, with employees having more options than ever before when it comes to where and how they choose to work. Employees want to be engaged in their work, have a sense of purpose, and feel like they are part of something bigger. To meet these expectations, organizations must strive to create a positive work culture, provide meaningful work, and offer opportunities for development and growth. By focusing on developing and nurturing an employee-centric work experience, organizations can create a more positive and productive environment resulting in better retention and increased productivity. But to aspire simply to making the workplace more efficient and productive is to miss much subtlety and fail to fathom the potential […]

Case Study: Quantum Workplace Supports HR Evolution and Cultural Transformation at Valet Living

Posted on by

What You Need to Know It can be very challenging to quantify the results of efforts in human capital management (HCM). This is of course one of the contributing factors to the unfortunate but common view of human resources (HR) departments as cost centers, when in fact they are assets—when allowed to function properly and in pursuit of their potential. Given the necessary resources, a good HR team, or even a single HR manager, can transform an entire business’s employee experience and, therefore, its workforce. Every workplace has a culture. There is no such thing as a lack thereof. Like an individual’s health, an organization’s culture exists by default; it does not need to be introduced through effort. There is, however, such a thing as […]

Analyst Insight: Legion Leverages Future-Of-Work Technology to Empower Hourly Workforces

Posted on by

What You Need to Know Hourly wage industries such as retail, food service, and hospitality — which comprise a majority of the U.S. workforce — have historically struggled with attracting and retaining good workers. Pandemic-fueled attrition in this sector has intensified the need to improve employee satisfaction. Companies seek efficient ways to plan and account for labor costs even as they comply with state and federal workforce regulations — all while creating a positive experience for employees, which impacts both productivity and repeat business from customers. By implementing capabilities in artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML), organizations are solving challenging problems and automating increasingly complex recurring tasks. AI, ML and other technology-powered solutions can manage concrete workforce management (WFM) issues such as compliance, budget […]

3Sixty Insights #HRTechChat with Maurik Dippel, Co-Founder and CEO of CircleLytics

Posted on by

Technology has advanced to the point where we don’t really have to subject ourselves to the inflexibility of a number of traditional, conventional practices anymore, in human capital management. One of these is our approach to measuring employee engagement and collecting employee feedback. Technology has evolved. We can dive much deeper now and achieve several objectives at once. We have much more at our disposal now than just one-to-many surveys set to quarterly, twice-annual or yearly cadences. “We’re finding that a lot of the old ways, the conventional or traditional ways of doing things, just don’t cut it,” says Maurik Dippel, our guest for this episode of the #HRTechChat video podcast. Annual employee engagement surveys and the like just aren’t “up to the to the […]

Research Agenda: Human Capital Management 2022

Posted on by

Many of the following themes for 2022 in human capital management build on the idea that every aspect of HCM has concrete and abstract expressions (3Sixty Insights BWSRN2142 – Concrete vs. Abstract HCM: The Power of “And,” April 2021)—easily measurable, tactical impacts (concrete), and less easily measurable, strategic impacts (abstract) all in the end affecting employee sentiment and, therefore, organizational success. This year’s themes also reflect the idea that advances in technology and in attitudes about HCM’s charter are blurring the lines between conventional silos of HCM. You cannot do performance management well anymore without combining it with better collaboration technology and a modern learning management system (LMS), for example. Even the long-ago newfangled term talent management has all but slinked away, replaced by notions […]
