Two HR practitioners discuss the evolving enterprise responsibility for employee well-being. Populations around the world are getting older as fertility rates decline and people live longer lives. According to the Harvard Initiative for Global Health, between 2005 and 2050, the share of the population aged 60 and over is projected to increase in nearly every country in the world. The number of people over the age of 60 is projected to reach 1 billion by 2020 and almost 2...

By Mark Hurd I'm a big believer that he who hath the best people usually wins. Nothing original there?except if that were the case, by definition, only one company would ever have the best people. The nuance here is that what you really want are the people best suited to work within the operating model you've put in place to execute your company's strategy. That's a tough assignment in the easiest of circumstances. But these are far from the easiest of circumstances. A...

We all know bad people management is a problem, but we're only now becoming aware just how big a problem. Not only does it affect the fortunes of employees and the companies they work for; it also adversely impacts national productivity. A 20 year investigation by the London School of Economics cited poor management (along with low investment and poor intermediate skills) as one of the key reasons why productivity in the UK drags behind that of other European and G7 nations....

What makes a healthy workforce? Ask a roomful of recruiters and someone will very quickly mention diversity. After all, businesses need employees from a wide variety of backgrounds who can inspire and challenge their colleagues and create a workforce that better resembles the outside world. But if diversity is important, so too is inclusion. If recruiters can find people from diverse backgrounds, with diverse skills, but who share many of a company's perspectives and values...

By Susan Poser Gaming techniques encourage employees to adopt habits that benefit the company while creating a fun atmosphere. I used to think that gaming was something for millennials, 18- to 27-year-olds who grew up gaming on their computers, earning badges, and competing with others to progress to a more challenging level. However, I find that I'm getting caught up in these activities before I realize what's happening. My utility company recently sent me an e-mail about...

Attracting, retaining, and promoting your best people has become more challenging than ever in the high-stakes competition for talent. The talented, high achievers on whom companies depend on to compete and win now expect any information they need to be instantly available, whenever and wherever they need it, from any device. Successful companies are increasingly turning to data analytics to recruit talent from the outside or develop people from within. Gretchen Alarcon,...

Whilst most organisations recognise the impact and value that improvements in employee engagement offer to an organisation it is still rather sad that, in the UK at least, productivity has failed to improve. It was therefore fascinating to listen to Andre Spicer from Cass Business School talking on the subject at our recent thought leadership dinner; events that coincide with meetings of the Engage for Success forum, run by David McLeod that we host. The subject of the...

Originally posted on Forbes Many executives define their customer experience strategies as an effort designed to earn their clients over and over again. In today's talent-centric corporate landscape, it seems to me that modern human resources (HR) could use a similar adage: How can we help our employees choose our company again and again? After all, the winning products and services that make a company successful in the marketplace are the direct result of employees'...
