Now we are all dealing with the aftermath. People are having to spend more on food and fuel, and many employees are looking at real damage, not all of...

A Dose of People Wisdom from Peter Drucker
Often people are hired for the wrong reasons. Hiring managers seek to minimize weaknesses rather than maximizing strengths. That is not the formula for success in hiring, according to Peter Drucker. From his book The Effective Executive, as quoted in The Daily Drucker, “Effective executives make strength productive.

September Legislative Preview – Hurricane Season for Congress Too
Congress returned to Washington, DC on September 5 for a fall sprint that is chock-full of must-pass legislation, some by the end of this month and others before the end of the year.

#Nextchat: Combining Anthropology and Technology for a Better Employee Experience
Do you get the “Sunday night blues,” or do you work for an organization that offers such a great experience that you can’t wait to show up to work each day?

Employee experience, however, is about how you design your workplace so that the tools and technology meet employees' needs. It’s also about creating an organizational energy...
