The 2024 HR Technology Conference is coming to Las Vegas, and like every year, pretty much every one of the myriad vendors, consultants, pundits and practitioners in the industry descend upon the desert, bringing with them an arsenal of booth accouterments, branded swag, buzzword-dense marketing collateral and, as always, a litany of overinflated promises and underwhelming products. This is actually my first HR ...

A little healthy competition is a good thing — under the right circumstances and with the right people. In many industries, internal competition has long been used to increase everything from productivity to profits. But what about using competition as part of your employee engagement strategy?

Having visibility into a team's processes and projects is important to every manager. However, when you're managing a remote team, visibility becomes even more critical.

Article by Jeff Thompson I had always wanted to work at a place that had fun: lots of laughter and smiling faces, an open-door policy, people working together. In short, I wanted to work at a place I could call home. So, in the '80s, when I was working for a frozen pizza brand, I took it upon myself to seek out my

Article by Michael Pietrzak John was born on Thanksgiving Day in 1954, but for him, life wasn't much to be thankful for. A birth defect caused John to wear painful leg braces, and his first-grade teacher told his parents he would never read, write, or amount to anything in life. (Dyslexia and speech impediments, both of which John had, weren't well understood in the '50s.) Accepting that he was worthless, John dropped out of school at age 14 and moved ...
